A poetic fantasy RPG and one of my favorite games of all time. Aurora's character development is some of the best I've seen and her companions are all really memorable. If there's any game you should play before you die, this should be one of them.

An awesome turned-based combat game. Lovely artwork making the world lively and entertaining. I also found myself enjoying the rhyming scheme with each line. Solid recommendation, especially on the steam deck.

It's a short game. What I think is great about it is that it isn't a long a game. It isn't to open world so it is not super overwhelming. It also isn't a grind. The artwork is lovely too. I also own on switch.
