Nov. 2024

This is a conditional recommendation. You will need the following to enjoy this game as intended: Typical color vision (although some of the puzzles have alternative glyphs) The ability to mash buttons The ability to react to QTEs within a quarter second Audio and the ability to both hear and differentiate tones There are no accessibility options for any of those. Combat, on the other hand, has baby mode, which prevents you from dying. You'd have to be able to play similar games rather well to play without it. Let me explain the gravity of these issues; while you can brute force the audio puzzles, there are quests that require high level food to pass. If you fail the Dance Dance Revolution minigame, you lose your ingredients. High level fish are a rare reward from QTE fishing which has a quarter second window, placed randomly within the fish's jump (I was going to mod it out, so I checked the exact code). If you spend a few hours getting a specific hat, it always has the same timing, but even then you're looking at 5-15 minutes of grinding QTEs to get another high level fish to have a *chance* at making the dish again. Many of the minigames with fail-states are passable on baby mode, but this game assumes a rather high level of both skill and physical ability. It's actually incredibly annoying and will likely prevent me from getting 100% completion simply because of the grind leading up to a very tight QTE. Other times contrast between colors is very low, and it's impossible to see, much less react to, the color keys in combat when they occur, and it took me forever to figure out the lands are color-keyed, and I still can't differentiate them on maps or scrolls. With that out of the way, the graphics, the audio, the animation, and the general feel are all amazing. It's a solid and fun game if you're able to either look past the accessibility issues or are fit enough to play it. It's been quite an enjoyable experience, if frustrating at times and with excessive grind and pacing issues. I can't speak to the quality of the combat, it doesn't feel very good, but I'm on baby mode and have given up on trying to learn how combat works. It's much more of a frantic pace, like Binding of Isaac, as opposed to something more deliberate, like Dark Souls. I'm sure some people will love it, but since you can turn baby mode on and off in the middle of a session, it's not an issue to me. So if you're looking for a nice, fun little game and all the above issues either don't apply to you or you'll deal with it, then I highly recommend this game. If you're frustrated by being unable to physically play half of the game, then I wouldn't recommend trying it. It is aggressively adorable, though. A true child-like adventure of fantasy, except your dad keeps reading the Lord of the Rings at bedtime or something.

Very cute game, and tons of fun! lots to do as well. 8.7/10

Sept. 2024

Oh yeah, I beat it 100% finally! Nice game, I thought it would be a small game for a couple of evenings. But suprisingly there is a lot of content and arcade\metroidvania gameplay mechanics. The plot is quite plain and not very exciting though, but it is not an issue. Quite good story. 9.5/10

Aug. 2024

It takes about 10~12 hours to beat the story mode and an additional 20 hours + for 100% completion. Its a very charming game and I can feel the developer's passion in it. The puzzles were fun (but very easy) and the story could use a bit more flavor? (It's very predictable). Even though it had a very repetitive gameplay, I had a lot of fun finishing the game. A solid 8/10 in my opinion, recommend to anyone who enjoys a cute adventure with a few puzzle scattered here and there

Aug. 2024

Uhm, EXCUSE ME?! I had no idea this game even existed til I saw it reccomended on Reddit. ITS PHENOMENAL! It's personally all I've been wanting in a game. Cute, puzzles, secrets, quests, combat that's not too hard (I'm playing on easy mode), a MUSEUM! This game is perfect in my eyes. Thanks, devs!!
