This game's artstyle is beautiful man. I absolutely adore the way it looks, everywhere you go in the game is as beautiful as the last.

This is a super chill RPG, quite possibly one of the most chill out there. You explore a silly little world with Mario enemies and go through quirky little text boxes. Though basic, the game is very noticeably well-polished in this regard. There's a nice, easy skip text button that makes a cool sound, you can spin in the overworld to travel faster which is fun to do, and the way the game moves through areas quickly, the way the camera can sometimes panorama in large areas, it all feels so nice. It's a relaxing world.

The battle system is dirt simple and very fun. I absolutely adore the badge system, my only issue with it is that the game isn't really all that hard. It'll throw a curveball or two, but I don't think I died a single time (I'm pretty sure I popped a Life Shroom though). You don't have a lot you can sic your cool badge setups on, the most you can do is kill stuff faster, which is cool enough I guess.

I love the action command system, it integrates reaction times and execution into a turn-based battle system without feeling stupid. Honestly, fundamentals-wise, this is an incredible RPG. It's intentionally very basic and simple, so this game is "easy to digest" in a way. There isn't really a part of the game that sticks out to me as fantastic, nor is there a part that sticks out as irritating. It's a solid experience throughout.

I 100%'d the game on my last run of it, which was generally pretty chill... except for the genuinely shocking amount of recipes this game has. I had no idea how many there were.

Really, there isn't an extensive amount I can say about this game other than it's comfortable and pretty easy. It's just a solid little game you can play, not much more or less.
