Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
The graphics are nice, and the story seems to be interesting, while a bit strange at places.
The controls though make it almost unplayable.
It plays like a absurd mixture of an old Pool or Golf game for the Gameboy with Metroid. You can only move between walls, like a bouncing ball.
With mouse and keyboard it feels mushy, and with a Gamepad you either have razor sharp precision, or you will fell like walking on eggshells with your hands bound behind your back.
While it is the feeling of gradual empowerment which makes other Metroidvanias a joy to run through, Dandara doesn't even let you run. At all.
A charming looking game, which killed itself by having the most unintuitive, unusable control schemes I have seen in a long time.
What a pity.
