I LOVE this game. It has such a fun concept that shifts the standard perspective on who is actually the hero. The gameplay is addictive, triggering that “just one more run” compulsion. The graphics are beautiful, kicking up the nostalgia for the days of playing Zelda on my purple GBC. The audio is crisp, clear, and pleasing to my synesthesia, excelling in creating an environment that I genuinely enjoy sitting in to keep hitting “retry” when I inevitably die to the amusingly named bosses. It’s challenging in all the right ways, creating a compelling little time sink I can definitely see myself picking up again.
I was thrilled to share my playthrough on my stream and I would happily play a full-size game in this vein.
10/10 the best deliverance of karma for all of my garbage hoarding in Skyrim. I’ll never look at my inventory the same as I pick up the 50,000th wooden spoon that I really don’t need and think about the possibility of a poor fairy flying around in disdain as I toss her more and more junk.
