I had so much fun playing this game. The art and music are absolutely fantastic. The puzzles are not too difficult, but also not a breeze. Some of the bosses were a bit tricky, but in no way impossible. I got a lot of Ori vibes from playing, in the best sense. I personally like that it's not a super long game, prefering short and sweet over long and epic. No problems with controller or such (used an X-box controller). Not sure I can say something truly negative, can only recommend if you enjoy games such as Ori and the Blind Forest and Hollow Knight2 found this helpful
Fun game but do not let the cute visuals fool you. It starts off feeling easy then slowly ramps up until some parts become genuinely challenging. That difficulty jump caught me off guard in a good way. I really love the art style. Everything looks illustrated with a lot of care and personality. The background music and sound effects are also great and do an excellent job of keeping you engaged while playing. I am not a fast gamer, it took me about 5 hours to finish the game, which felt just right. It is charming, tough when it needs to be and very satisfying to complete.1 found this helpful
This game has such charming artwork and music in it. I quickly fell in love with the kitty and her frog family. The visual storytelling is superb as well. Some of the fight scenes are a bit challenging and often unforgiving but I found it very rewarding when I completed them. Getting 100% on achievements was not too bad. I love this game!1 found this helpful
The game features a cute art style and engaging gameplay, especially during each boss fight. However, the story feels somewhat confusing, as it does not clearly explain where the cat comes from or why it needs to help others.1 found this helpful
This game is really nice and challenging. I’m not sure how a kid would beat it. When the cat dies in the game, it makes a very realistic cat sound. My two cats actually started searching around the house trying to find where the sound was coming from.
Thought it’d be a chill cozy title, but the level difficulty really caught me off guard ~ in the best way.
