Really fun game. Has a great gameplay loop of exploring and finding new ways to get more powerful and progress. It excels at the rpg dungeon crawling aspect. The environments are gorgeous and there are so many that really pulled me in. The music is amazing and overall this games strongest point for me is the atmosphere. I’ve been looking for a game outside of survival horror games that can capture serious atmosphere. This game does that but in its own way. And sometimes it’s genuinely creepy.

I don’t have much to complain about. All the stuff that annoyed me is mainly the traversal. Having entire maps in between the main ones with crystals is really frustrating. It can be hard to go back to explore more when it feels like the second you step away from a warp stone you can get lost at any moment. This game doesn’t have a map and that’s the other main problem. Almost every place I went I had such a good time until I realized I was stuck running in circles or missing some random corner or something. Would be nice to know where I’ve gone and have a visual for where I am at least. The game has banners to leave behind as you explore like bread crumbs. But that doesn’t do shit. It literally just makes you confused on an extra level when you end up looping no matter what. All these things were annoying but they weren’t enough to stop me from playing the rest of the game.

Btw the game is in early access. There’s still so much content to explore but just know that you’ll reach the end of what there is to do and you’ll just kinda have to realize that there’s no real ending. It’s more like you have to experience everything there is so far. Hopefully the game gets even bigger.

The game is just vibes. Like literally buy it and just walk around… kill some enemies (except for the snails and rabbits) find some secret walls and weapons. If that sounds like your type of thing you’ll love it.
