2024-08-10 | Neža Vižintin | Edit: I finally bought the game and it was well worth it. It's a great simple and beautiful game. I usually get frustrated with platformers on my phone but the controls, gameplay and difficulty are all very well made and balanced. I like the game and I want to buy the full version but the button to buy it doesn't work in the game. | |
2024-02-21 | Fsh | Genuinely, this is my standards for games. Simple yet elegant and unique. It doesn't try too hard and it doesn't have a million features. It even has voice acting and captions for it. Though, the VA lacks emotion but you can see what they mean even without it. The controls are a little small but I personally love it, it's a small tinge of unique compared to huge ones. And the story telling is mysterious, doesn't give too much details at one go. Lots of love to the team behind this very game. | |
2023-11-05 | Kurt Jorgensen | Super fun game. Calming, cool narrating voice, cool abilities, awesome art. My only complaint is that when I click "buy the full version" I don't get sent to a purchase option. Also, it is a little disappointing they only give you a taste before slamming you with a buy wall. Anyway, fix the link to purchase full game and I'll change my rating. | |
2023-10-11 | Kevin Verdeck | Fun single-player action platformer. Interesting story with a unique premise. Fun departure from all the idle and clicker ganes. Note: Only the first levels are free. The only problem I have with it, is It wants you to use tilt controls. There is an option to use on-screen buttons, but the movement slider is so small I miss it and fail to move too often. | |
2023-01-16 | Laura Lieberman | I wanted to love this game, and (when it works) the game is a lot of fun. But it's incredibly frustrating to have to start back at the beginning every. Single. Time I play. It has no functional ability to save progress that I've been able to utilize and the developers were unresponsive (even after buying the game to see if that resolved the issue). Really frustrating. | |
2022-01-03 | Stupid Blue Goblin | Woo! This is my second review of this game. I got the full game and beat it all in one day, it's positively addictive! After beating the game and the first part of the harder Void Mode, my opinion of this game has only improved! This game is super underrated and has a beautiful story, stunning art, and the very uplifting and touching ending is just the cherry on top! I still stand by my word from the last review! It was a charming little adventure, from start to finish! | |
2021-09-08 | zach weddle | Fantastic game! I am not one to ever spend money on a game, but after trying the beginning of this one, I had to purchase the full version. Starts off easy and progressive becomes more challenging as you move through the stages. Comparable to a classic side scroll game, this one gets a little more interactive and immerses you in game play and the beautiful, yet simple visuals. Great job to the developers! | |
2021-04-24 | Jarod Smith | Very short game, I did not expect it to be a demo. From what was there, it seems like it would be a great and enjoyable platform puzzle solver with an interesting story. Approximately 30 minutes of play before the rest of the game is behind a pay wall. Usually 'in app purchases' means, "speed up progress" or "play without ads", the game should have 'demo' in the title, that's what it is. | |
2021-03-10 | BrimmFate | A new review for a new decade. I just entirely replayed the game and then made a new save to play with the hidden language. This is an amazing game. 10/10 game. Edit: So I realize this review did not really do anything in terms of reviewing the game. It's really long and heart warming. Depending on who you are the game might be over 24 hours long but for me it was around 10 to 100% both modes. The story is amazing and it's really worth the money. | |
2020-10-27 | Charlotte Fire | Fantastic game, though a little hard at times. Story is simple enough to focus on gameplay yet complex enough to make you think. Music is not the game's strongest point, but it blends in well with the lovely art and the gameplay. Gameplay itself is simple and fun; the colours allow for multiple solutions to the puzzles the game shows. |
