I really wanted to love this game. It had an interesting premise, beautiful visuals, and some really enjoyable platforming sections that reminded me of the latest Prince of Persia game. Unfortunately, the combat arenas become tedious; it's very easy to get soft locked into an unavoidable series of attacks until you die over and over again. Along with the frustrating combat, there were far too many instant kill environmental hazards with terribly vague hit boxes and a reliance on lengthy autoscrolling sections around the boss battles that just became a chore. I felt I had to see it through to the end to see how the story concluded, which – despite having some touching moments throughout – led to quite a weak conclusion.
