Ezmore’s Crystals is a fun game, but there are some things about it that are annoying. It is hard to tell which NPCs can be interacted with since the ones that can need you to walk towards them by pointing and clicking. This is annoying because most of the time, I open the dialogue and instantly close it because I walked too far. It’s also annoying how you can push the NPCs while talking. What could make this better is to add an interaction key, so you don’t accidentally open it while running away from an enemy and make it so you can’t move while talking. It would also be nice to have a way to close dialogue. The auto combat system is unique to other games I’ve played before, but it’s not interesting to be standing still fighting enemies. This combat mechanic is a problem because sometimes I can get stuck being killed as soon as I respawn since I keep my low health. There is also a problem where you can walk against a door and go through it without a key. This isn’t an issue however as these areas need better gear. The quests are well designed though. They aren’t too difficult to do and help your progression. Overall, it’s a fun game, but there are some flaws that make the experience less fun. 7/10
