Simply a good game
As many others have said, this (as of this review) free game is better than a lot of paid games. If you're like me and add games to your library just because they're free but never play them, you should give this one a chance. I was surprised by how quickly it hooked me. And once it did, I dropped everything else I was playing because it was just a lot more fun. I guess this could be considered a Metroidvania, but I think it has more in common with the classic side-scrolling Action RPGs like Faxanadu, Cadash, etc. You do get access to new areas as you collect items, but I'm talking about overall feel here. This is honestly a good thing as it doesn't weigh itself down with trying to force itself to fit that genre. It has its own unique flow. There's so much personality here in the world and characters. There's the essential element of mystery, seeing a blocked off item or area and wondering how you might be able to access it later, and then a feeling of reward when you finally reach them. A common problem with "retro" games like this is unbalanced difficulty. I've played a lot of games like this where the difficulty just spikes and you wonder if the developer was just having a bad day or something. There are some spikes here with some of the boss fights, but it's nothing too crazy, and I didn't get stuck on any one thing for too long. I'm giving it five stars relative to other games of its type. It hits all the right notes, it kept me interested throughout, and most of all it was just fun to play.
