[h1] A Satisfying Waxy Experience – 5/10 [/h1] [h2] A short platformer with no real difficulty, suitable for beginners. The visuals are decent, and it has potential that could’ve been used much better. [/h2] [h2] Cons: full of technical issues, the interface is primitive and lacks even the most basic features… it could’ve been much better than what it is. [/h2] [h1] تجربة شمعية مرضية 5/10 [/h1] [h2] لعبة بلاتفورم قصيرة, صعوبتها معدومة ومناسبة للمبتدئين, الرسوم معقولة, فيها إمكانيات كان من الممكن أن تستغل بشكل أفضل [/h2] [h2] السلبيات: فيها العديد من المشاكل التقنية والواجهة بدائية وتخلو من أبسط الأمور..... كان بالإمكان أفل بكثير مما كان [/h2]

Decent platformer. Its got a lot of style, good platforming, collectibles, and power upgrades. However, the controls feel loose at times, the combat is horrible, and the deaths often seem unfair (although there are frequent checkpoints). The pros slightly outweigh the cons, so a thumbs up from me. On a 1-10 scale this would be about a 5.5.
