A charming little game that has a pretty fun 3D moveset to vibe out in. I do think the repetition in some objectives does start to wear on the game in the latter half, and especially if you're going for 100%.

A great improvement from the first game. Puzzles remain interesting yet become more intuitive through great level design, and the addition of a partner character gives the game an entirely different feel than the first while not diminishing the horror element. I can see parts of ICO's design philosophy in this addition that feel right at home in this game.

Never have I ever played a rouge-like that I've been able to stick with for the long run (most others last 3-5 hours before I turn off). The familiarity of Poker and the 52-card deck helps the game's learning curve tremendously, and the way that familiarity is twisted by the various joker cards and tarot decks gives it whimsical character.

This game presents an enthralling mystery that's backed up with very fun characters and witty writing. The game is very funny at the drop of a hat too, helped by stellar voice performances from the characters. The final twist can make things feel a bit messy, but after I had time to think on it, it still worked for me.
