A great tribute to the LCD games of yore. Neat locales with lots of soothing earthy tones, you rarely see steppes(?) in games i feel. And that singular gameplay track is bumpin' and just enhances the already warm summer vibes. The mc, Snippy, shows a surprising amount of personality with so little: Her swaying and stumbling when shifting around the garden is snappy and determined while also occasionally showing her goofy side. She's got a cute cheery voice that straddles the line of being obnoxious. The game is exhilarating! Towards the tail end it might become a bit too frantic though, and it does. A few more trials would probably have resulted in making the game feel more worth and lessened the relatively steep difficulty curve, however for the price of admission, this is fantastic!

The late game's grueling difficulty doesn't really mesh with the fun unpredictable nature of the units' actions and physics, and makes repeating many stages infuriating. Disregarding that, the Sandbox mode shines in the shear unfathomable amount of infinite combinations of battles you can create with the over 100 different units, and the pretty robust unit creator. You can possess every single one of them and they all have their own dumb-fun moveset(with quirks and all).

I'd say look up a guide for how to acquire all the hidden units, and just go bananas in the sandbox. The campaign is completely optional, while still showing occasional greatness.

Way to just egregiously plagirize 'Archero' with every. Single. Possible aspect. But with an infinitely worse difficulty curve

Level structure. Crafting and equipment system requiring three of the same item to upgrade its rarity. Exact same stutter-step gameplay and camera angle. Loads of indentically functioning enemies, and even more identical abilities.

There's even a fuckin' roulette table you spin at the start of every tomb, just like Archero!

This was me rambling, but I desperately needed to get this out there.
