Such an underrated game. This is such a charming action RPG that pays homage to classic 16 bit era games while carving out its own identity with a great storyline, co-op gameplay, and a surprising amount of depth. The combat system is great, offering a great mix of melee/magic/ranged etc - it really allows you to experiment. The world is whimsical. My partner and I have put in many hours. Some of the boss fights are INTENSE. Overall Score: 9/10 - super nostalgic and so fun

Absolutely phenomenal game. Great in both single and multi-player and "arcade" mode is super fun as well (with a whole different village to develop and upgrade!) Pacing is really good and you unlock more content as you progress. Well-written, funny, fantastic gameplay loop. Flexible builds with a bunch of mix and match skills (I favor a summoning build to fit my preferred playstyle, but I did a fast attack with status effects build and that was fun too.) Respeccing is easy and cheap.

A game in development for so long I first played it back in ye olden days of Skype, before Discord existed. A charming RPG that feels very reminiscent of Zelda LttP with a simpler art style. The story is surprisingly captivating, and filled with memorable developments and twists. The dialogue constantly brings out laughter, even when re-experiencing some parts again years later. Only noteworthy flaws that come to mind are in balancing, a lot of skills and build styles just don't cut it. Arcade mode was a neat experience, I do enjoy a fun roguelike, but it just lacked some extra progression. Overall a fun time.

This game was played on a Steam Deck. I have a love/hate relationship with this game. And personally I would say it‘s some kind of Dark Souls in Pixel Graphics. (And let me tell you, Dark Souls is one of the worst games you could give me, because I am so bad at them!) Positive / Neutral / Negative + I love the graphics! + Lots of Skills and therefore tons of ways you can build your character + Funny characters + Multiplayer o Lots of riddles o can be kind of grindy - Hardest Phase Shift required for True Ending (I will rant about this later) Visuals / Audio I love the visuals… They really put a lot of effort into all the sprites! The characters, the background and the areas were really lovely. There were also a lot of different sprites for different reactions and actions. The audio was totally fine! The soundtrack and the ton of sound effects fit the game perfectly! The visuals were definitely my highlight of this game. This and Bag kept me going till the normal end. Performance This game performed really well on my Steam Deck! I don‘t remember changing any of the settings and there were no noticable lags. The only thing I can nitpick was, that during one of the boss fights my game suddenly crashed and I had to reopen it. (Sandgolem Battle) This only happened once in my 25 hours play time though. And then I had a save directly before the boss / inside the boss room. So no big issues here. Gameplay I put the gameplay as my last point on purpose this time. Let‘s start with the positive first: The game itself is kind of an action-like RPG. You level up, get different skill points, which you can put into skills and passives. However, there is no real skill tree. Which means you can put the points into the tree however you like. This can be good and bad. Especially if you don‘t know how the skills work together with eachother. However, you can simply refund already placed skill points and get them back. So nothing is lost if you later notice, that the build you thought was cool, wasn‘t really feasible! There is also a story line to follow. I personally liked the story and wanted to know how it ends… Which brings me to my biggest gripe with this game. This game has two endings. A normal ending. And a true ending. And for **** sake, I don‘t understand why they locked the true ending behind the hardest riddle in this game!!! Riddle doesn‘t really come close to this. Riddles can be solved by following instructions. I am not really a very fast person. I need my time to process and to properly choose my input. So riddles, that are timeboxed are a complete no-go for me. (Let‘s say I am kind of challenged with motions and fast reactions… Two left hands or so.) I have done all the pre-requisites for this stupid ending… Except for the last two pieces of the Phase Resequencer. The 2nd one broke me and I WILL NOT GET BACK TO IT. I tried for more than half an hour and I was so close to tears because even with guides I wasn‘t able to do it! The sad thing is, I was so close to finish it TWICE but instead of leaving north, I left north-east and had to restart again… YES, I AM A SLOWPOKE. I know it! And I accept the fact. Hate me all you want. I will NOT understand why this is a requirement for the True Ending! And I hate the devs for this design! Ok. I said it. Now I feel better. Back to something positive: The NPCs. Bag was such a mood. And I kept the little fairy from the side quest by my side until the normal end and I enjoyed the comments so much. These two were the best companions I could wish for! Also there are some characters inside this game, who really have gone through some character developments. I was really happy to see this. :) Also the combat was really hard sometimes, and I really felt like this game was some sort of Dark Souls… I then switched to full defense mode at some point: Lots of summons and shields so that I can focus on dodging. This was fine most of the time, even though I had to retry a few fights. (As mentioned before… Motionally challenged. :D) Summary I can still recommend this game, even though I am disappointed at not being able to play the true ending myself. It‘s still a cute RPG and it can be a bit grindy, if you‘re up for it.
