Elephantasy is brimming with charm yet lacking in substance. That isn't necessarily an issue, but I figured I should set some expectations for anyone interested in the game.
The core gameplay loop is a mix of Metroidvania and A Link Between World's rental system, where you use items to advance past certain obstacles on the map, but you must choose which items to take with you at a time. Find gems around the surprisingly wide world and upgrade your carry capacity until you can finally carry each item once.
There's a little synergy between items (namely between the ring and others), but it doesn't go far enough to create anything with a great amount of mechanical depth. It's just quaint, a pretty little game that won't challenge you too much or take too long. I liked it.
