Nice little Picto game with an actual end. Especially at the current price

A cute game with a hard difficulty curve towards the end, well worth the price if you're a nonogram/picross lover. If you're scared off by the difficulty curve thing, get it on sale. Pros: -Interesting nonograms, power ups are easy to acquire and quests will give you freebies -Decently long run time for this style of puzzle game, I've clocked about 10 hours on it Cons: -Difficulty curve hits HARD once you're at about 80% completion. I finished the first 83% of the game in one sitting, the last 20% has taken a few days. -Enemy attacks are somewhat inconsistent and unforgiving, they will attack not only when you make mistakes, but also if you're simply taking too long or if you're marking off squares. It's fine at first but becomes downright cruel during 20x20 grids. -This might be my personal skill issues but once you get into the 20x20 grids, the low inventory size and scarcity of power up/health items means you will frequently be going into puzzles with a full inventory and then end up with no items left. I know it's about logic moreso than using power ups but in the late game, especially on quest maps where you're not allowed to make any mistakes or boss maps where you take critical damage, it ends up feeling frustrating and cruel. -The occasional bonuses they give for solving rows/columns are also fairly inconsistent and a bit too skimpy in the late game, I had multiple occasions wherein the literal millisecond I solved a row the reward went away and I didn't earn it. They should've balanced later puzzles to either give more of the bonuses or had the bonus chance stay on the row longer. -There are basically no actual rpg elements to this, so the marketing is a bit off-center. It's a picross with a shop and a map. The shop is nice at least. -The map is a little nonsensical because there's basically no reason to backtrack once you've finished puzzles, and if you do choose to it's convoluted and takes a long time even with the borderline unnecessary fast travel points. -You're asked to pick a player character at the beginning, but as far as I can tell this has no effect either on gameplay or narrative; both characters speak during cutscenes. Not a big deal, just a minor quibble because it feels so unnecessary.

Lovely little gem for all ages. The adventure theme makes it addictive and the trophies just make it perfect. I really loved it and I can recommend it for anyone.

really simple plot, but super cute and charming character writing and art. grammar nazis, beware, but perhaps take this as a fun challenge in growing your tolerance of readable text in service of a cute, chill journey with nice, art, music, and puzzles of which there is a surprisingly fun variety!
