[h1] A Beautiful, Dreamlike World with Very Rough Edges [/h1] [h2] 😊 The Positives [/h2] [list] [*] [b]Nice Art Style[/b]: The game world and its soft colors look very beautiful from a distance. It has a great artistic feeling. [*] [b]Beautiful Music[/b]: The musical score is beautiful, relaxing, and catches the game's mood perfectly. [*] [b]Intriguing Lore[/b]: The story about rebirth is very charming and beautiful, even if it is a bit confusing to understand. [*] [b]Easy 100% Achievements[/b]: Getting all achievements is very easy. You can keep a guide open to get the missable achievements in just one playthrough. If you miss anything, you can just use the chapter select after you finish the game. [/list] [h2] ☹️ The Negatives [/h2] [list] [*] [b]Annoying Camera[/b]: The camera angles move around at random. It actively fights your movement and messes up your direction. [*] [b]Clunky Controls[/b]: Character movement and jumping feel floaty and unresponsive. Using a keyboard is terrible, so a gamepad is highly recommended to play this. [*] [b]Weak Combat[/b]: Swinging the sword feels very slow. It lacks any satisfying impact or weight. [*] [b]Boring Mechanics[/b]: The mechanics …

Not really sure what genre the game is, but it is more of a walking sim than anything. - Buggy. Worst issues are the bugs. No outright crashes, but plenty that require a restart. - Strange "stylistic" art that seems like an attempt to put multiple generations of Zelda into one game. - Kind of boring. There's really not much to do and only some things to look at. - Not a lot going on with the story. There seems to have been some seeds of effort and good ideas, but they never really bloom into anything interesting. -/+ Music. The music is ok. Not overbearing. Not interesting. It's there. Someone else might like it more. + The only true positive the game has is it's final (and basically only) fight. For a nothing-burger game to finish off with a cool boss mechanic feels... kind of good? If you can trudge through the rest of the game and just enjoy a moment for the way it looks and feels right then, then the boss fight makes the rest worth it.

I've played this back by the end of 2015. Then, the game was highly praised by... something i don't even remember, but there was a lot of talk and recommendation (reason i gave it a chance) Turno out the game is BORING - B O R I N G!!!!! I can't really express how much this game bored me while i tried to play it for a bit longer than half an hour. Yeah, other say the game is not much longer - 2 to 2 n half hours - but i could not stand to play this longer.

Honestly not a bad game, just very rough around the edges. It feels like a conversation about how the game got made could be more interesting, and occupy more time, than the game itself does. Will add more about the story as I have time to write my way around the spoilers but the general premise of what is functionally a time loop or reincarnation cycle is pretty well established. The central problem is that the way it is executed is not particularly fun. Add in some real problems with level readability and what would have otherwise have been a janky but interesting little game becomes a real slog.
