Gameplay is decent, it is a metroidvania style game. The map system works well and it is fun to explore all the boxes on the map looking for secrets. Where this game falls short is the combat system. Many of the enemies seem unintelligent and are far too easy to beat. The big ones require dodging and some timing, but nothing complex. Most enemies seem like canon fodder. The boss fights are fun, but their difficulty compared to the other mobs is on a whole different tier. If you die and have to repeat a boss fight you do have to sit through the cutscenes. This gets old very fast (water boss). One other complaint I have is the music just was not enjoyable to me. Overall this is a perfectly average metroidvania, with around a 7 hour playtime.
