Really simple but fun. The game looks beautiful, and the soundtrack is great. Gameplay consists mostly of pressing 3 buttons, but getting the hang of the movement is really enjoyable and rewarding. The puzzles are pretty easy. The boss fights are also not that hard, but they look fantastic. I enjoyed my time with it. I would say get it on sale.

I loved this game!! The story was great, the graphics are very pretty, the music is absolutely epic (Austin Wintory). It is rather short because I beat it within 10 hours but I will be playing through it again so I can get all the achievements. I also know there are some secrets I need to find as well. The boss fights are challenging but I like the fact that you don't have to start the whole battle over again if you "die" because you get knocked out of the area instead. I give this 9/10, only because I wish it was a little longer. I will be attempting to get that extended ending next :) I like the fact that Troy Baker was the voice actor for the Godslayer too.

Disclaimer: Get on sale With a sale I only paid ~$10. Well worth it in my opinion. The puzzles are the right amount of difficulty, not too easy and not too hard. I did not have to look up anything for game guidance. The controls are really fun in this game. Smooth running and eagle gliding. Each boss battle has different gimmicks so fights don't become repetitive. Besides the boss battles, a very relaxing game with a gorgeous soundtrack. For the time the game takes, $39.99? A bit pricy for that. $10 worth it. I originally played this on Apple Arcade when it first came out. I personally think the controls are much more pleasurable with controller instead of touch screen.

A very fun and relaxing game with Mongolia meets Princess Mononoke and The Last Airbender vibes. The entire gameplay loop revolves around moving quickly around the map by shooting talismans that replenish your rapidly depleting stamina bar. There is always assist when aiming and you cannot die or fail (except one achievement), so it's very low stress. UI is minimalistic and immersive, but you can always use the spirit mask to guide you towards points of interest. In each area you need to collect lightstones to activate three towers which unlock a boss - these are really well designed, cinematic and completely unique bar their initial chase phase. I can definitely see why some find this repetitive but it really clicked for me and if anything I wish it was longer (average playthrough without chasing all achievements is probably 6-8h). Moving around feels fun, fluid, responsive and varied - you can run, drift, glide, jump, climb, fly upwards and swim; and the world is beautiful with many puzzles and lore fragments. It is a connected open world composed of two small areas (prologue and epilogue) and four large zones, each different biome with plenty of secrets to find and solve. Music, sound and voice acting are excellent and greatly augment the atmosphere. PS: If you don't think it's worth the price it's often on sale for -75% so you can get it for fairly cheap.

criminally underrated imo, though probably not the game for you if you want complex, difficult combat that requires practice and a great deal of effort - it's fairly casual in that regard (auto-aim; you just have to pull back the arrow long enough to make the shot and be careful not to fall off any cliffs when pulling back and moving at the same time). i do think it more than makes up for the more simplistic combat with the sheer fluidity and fun of the movement and flight mechanics. the boss fights in particular deserve a special mention for me; the difficulty for them often lays in getting the timing right whilst dodging attacks, and the bosses themselves are intimidating and fast. the map is beautiful as well, the lore is interesting, and the puzzles require some thought and are very rewarding to do (if you enjoy puzzles). overall a fantastic experience, much like the other games giant squid has put out.
