A decently solid N64 platformer. The game wears it humor on its sleeve as it feels like watching a sitcom with the canned laughter. The cast of heroes and villians are very good to watch and listen to. This game supplies a very good hint system, with both NPCs telling you what you could do and a Hint Shop that tells you what to do like a Strategy Guide. Only way you could get lost is if you were to refuse reading what the game puts down. Although the open world segments are relatively empty, looking around and enjoying the music is a vibe itself. Combat is your basic platformer controls, jump and attack. Small gripes come from the way the camera refuses to cooperate and how some weapons only get one or two real uses. Very good game to vibe with and good humor.

A bit of a downgrade from Aria of Sorrow, sprite-wise. Soul hunting and upgrading weaponry is fun. Some boss fight gimmicks were fun while others can just be ignored or forced to wait out. Final boss left plenty to desire while being a bit absurd (although this may be just a me thing refusing to find armor that wont make a single hit deal 75% of my health). Solid game.
