Very tempting to call this "the prettiest SNES game you never got to play on SNES" or something similar but, get real, nothing on the SNES ran this crisp and smooth. Still, what a beautiful and beautifully retro-vibed game this was, often challenging, rarely frustrating, and impeccably designed throughout. The split personality subtext and mountain-as-depression metaphor could have been more subtle, but who cares? With a game this charming and snazzy, a properly told story is just icing on the cake.
