What players say
Decent Game overall [6.5/10] Great artstyle and music but the gameplay and story are not. Gameplay: Gameplay is not as bad as people claiming it to be but its also not something people would be very interested to try. most of the time you throw items to bait or cure enemies (which is interesting for me as a concept) game also gives you different things to play around with like being able to move objects and knock...

Purchased on sale as I have a thing for pixel graphics and I wasn't disappointed. Don't be fooled by appearance though, this game is NOT combat focused, but is more about exploration, problem solving, and the story narrative. There are some frustrating spots born of poor design, but overall, it was absolutely worth the price of admission.
