You won't get far just going in swinging. Learning enemy behavior is much more important than in any other Metroidvania and that feels very rewarding.

Over 30 hours of gameplay.

Every movement in the game makes you feel like you are in control.

Makes you wanna explore more to find out whats going on and you may find secrets with NPCs that will tell you more or add to the mystery. This keeps things interesting.

Has a very dedicated aesthetic that works beautifully.

The visuals, music and sound effects are both quirky and charming. You may stay for the gameplay, but you come in for the lovable world.

With a couple exceptions, the boss fights are challenging in a way that does not feel cheap. If you die, it is because you screwed up and not because the game didn't feel like keeping you alive anymore.

The game world is enormous, with a massive amount of secret areas that really reward you for sniffing them out.

Three DLCs have been released, adding additional quests for free.
