Zapling Bygone does some cool things, like the otherworldly atmosphere and lore and how it's always cool to play a tentacle monster that can walk on walls or punch as it walks (since it has many tentacles!), but this is not a gaming experience for me. Confusing level layouts, unfun upgrades and, worst of all, blind navigation where you only unlock the map after beating an area and the game does nothing to help you figure out what you've already explored or not. That's a nightmare for my ADHD brain so I'm out after just an hour or two. I do believe that this developer has a great game in them, though, so I don't feel great about hating this game, but I do. Next game!
