Entertaining idea, poor execution
Writing is borderline bad, controls and gameplay are pretty awkward and unpolished. All it has going for it is the concept, which is reasonably neat and reasonably well done, but it's not enough to save the game.

A gem, you must play it
This game is really good. One of my favourite. then why 4 start? because it have a little problem it's just a little short (you can finish it in few hours). The game it's perfect but it's like play a good demo because when you finish it you want more... But they made it in a day so I cannot really complain about it. it's a 4 start but you have to buy it and play it, because it worth your time (and since it is short there is not even the excuse of "I have no time")

Nostalgia FTW!
Nice and funny, but... nothing more. Is short, is pretty and is a love letter to the genre. For us, the nostalgic ones, is a fina and interesting games.

It was okay, and then... over.
Evoland is a cute game with a cool concept. Basically, you get to play through the evolution of RPGs from what appears to be the GameBoy era to today. Unfortunately, this charm is all the game has to offer, and even that charm is mostly limited to the graphics. The plot is a blatant "parody" of Final Fantasy VII. The gameplay never really moves beyond "swing your sword with a button and try not to get hit too much". The constant "evolution" of the gameplay means that it never holds any sort of consistency; for example, the game introduces the concept of healing potions, and then takes away the inventory without warning, and with it the ability to use those healing potions. All of this culminates in a multi-stage boss fight (complete with unskippable cutscenes! So much fun when you die constantly!) which can be charitably describes as "frustrating." I honestly expected this to be the end of the first act, but it was the end of the entire game. Sadly, Evoland doesn't see fit to include anything resembling a "New Game +" mode to allow a fully-evolved character to go back through starting areas for items that may have been inaccessible at the time. To put it briefly, Evoland is an enjoyable - if extremely brief - journey through the evolution of RPGs and gaming in general, but sadly it falls into almost every pothole that has caused those games to stumble over the years.

Maybe if it's heavily discounted.
The concept is cute and the humor is great, but the gameplay is thin. The combat is trivially simple in all modes, which makes it a two-to-three hour romp from start to end. I expect that the various collections were intended to make for more of something to do, but since the game doesn't seem to handle tracking them possible without Steam, they might as well not exist. Its just not enough game for $10. If it goes on sale for 70-80% off, then maybe.
