Really wonderful and unique game with a gorgeous and striking art style and interesting game mechanic. The stealth sections were entirely pointless tbh, and after a while I found myself getting a bit frustrated with the movements and the player character's agonizingly slow walk speed. It's a huge world with a lot of areas and plenty of backtracking, so walking around will be half of your play time, and the game does little to innovate on that aspect and it ends up feeling quite tiresome to watch your little guy walk through the same huge rooms over and over.

But, like I said, the art direction is immaculate and so is the music and ambience, so it's not a huge deal, and can be kind of meditative if you're into that sort of thing. Unfortunately I am an impatient gremlin and found myself sighing a lot. It is a taste thing, I suppose.

I do absolutely recommend it, though!
