What players say
It's not bad, though it's a somewhat weaker Metroidvania. The map could use more than one type of marker. Many areas feel like they were just copy-pasted, and the story isn't that spectacular either. Still, the graphics are very pretty and the soundtrack is excellent. That's why I'm giving it a good rating, I still had fun playing it. However, I definitely recommend the Ori and Hollow Knight games over this one.

Had a hard time getting into it with lack of engagement and unique and interesting story. It has great mechanics and concept just... not for me.
