This is one of those love it or hate it type of games, not likely too many people in between. Not exactly a platformer, nor is it really a puzzle solver or even an adventure game. The best description without spoiling the experience is to call it story-based exploration of an island that feels very much like an anime version of the Wizard of Oz. The game begins with Annika, a half-human / half-feline girl awakening on a mysterious island with no recollection of how she got there. She quickly meets up with a boy named Giraffe, who explains that he’s trying to collect three star fragments and needs the help of Annika to do so. The pair sets out exploring the island unlocking new areas and abilities while attempting to find the fragments before a mysterious witch is able to collect them first. The evolution of the story as you meet fun and interesting characters overshadows much of the shortcomings, like the lack of challenge and somewhat disappointing dungeon sequences. The animation is a bit strange so if you get easily motion sick, best to avoid this game. Full review: https://thethirstymage.com/2020/08/21/giraffe-and-annika-nintendo-switch-review/
