Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Combat is very basic as far as I have experienced. Platforming is fine I guess. I got softlock I can't access a gate cause I don't have a specific key but can't go back up because I intentionally fall to get to that area. Aside from that…”
“Has some potential, but is seriously unfinished. The menus suck, the UI is missing displays for the amount of some currencies. All in all feels more like a student project with unexpected amounts of content than a product I'd want to pay…”
