merlumina rated Isles of Sea and Sky (Chapter 1)

merlumina rated a game 5 years ago
A downloadable game.

This demo was really solid and makes me excited for the full game. A wonderful proof of concept. The graphics perfectly recreate GBC nostalgia and the music is beautiful and sets the tone of the game wonderfully. This is my first time playing a game that revolves almost exclusively around sokoban mechanics, and I really enjoyed how much abstract thinking was involved to solve a lot of the puzzles! A lot of them had me stumped for a while, but it was so satisfying to solve them! So far I have only gotten 79% completion on the demo and I'm hoping to 100% it, but I can also wait for the full game. There is so much attention to detail and richness in the world, and it's so satisfying to go back and forth to different places to solve puzzles you left behind the first time (unlocking new areas you had known about for a long time was always a part I loved about the Game Boy Zelda games, and this recreates that feeling perfectly). Looking forward to the full game!
