« En résumé : C'est bien, mais trop court. Comptez 10H max pour le 100%. Dur de parler du jeu sans spoil des mécaniques etc. tellement il est court. Mais j'ai passer une bonne après-midi dessus ! 7/10 ! »👍 anonymous review · Sep 2026 · 7 h played« Très bon jeu, Je n'ai ressenti aucune frustration de bout en bout, les combats comme les phases de plateforme sont très agréables.

The story is enjoyable, nothing feels rushed. Even if you run through it in 6 hours thats like $2 an hour for fun, Thats cheaper than a Chipotle Burrito now days. Definitely worth playing. »👍 anonymous review · Aug 2026 · 1 h played« The game seem to have been building up to something bigger but then the ending felt abrupt and premature. But still, the combat is very satisfying and the pixel art is beautiful, so at this price point I felt it was worth it. »👍 anonymous review · Sep 2026 · 7 h played
« Game literally just *ends* at the 4 hour mark right after you get the 2nd weapon. Pretty clear the dev didn't want to finish it. Was really fun up until then, but I can't rightly recommend it with an ending like that. »👎 anonymous review · Sep 2026 · 4 h played2« A lot of potential but way too short, 4/5 hours top. It feels like an unfinished game. »👎 anonymous review · Sep 2026 · 15 h played1« For what its worth, I cannot get past the first zone (the caves) - its just too difficult for me... Sorry, cant recommend. »👎 anonymous review · Aug 2026 · 2 h played7« Jeu qui aurait pu être sympa, de bonnes idées, un gameplay fluide et fun MAIS: - ambiance pas travaillée - trop d'ennemis a la fois qui rendent les combats confus, brouillon »👎 anonymous review · Aug 2026 · 10 h played« J'ai bien aimé la démo : que du combat. Déçu par le jeu au final. J'aurais préféré n'avoir que du combat sans prise de tête. »👎 anonymous review · Aug 2026 · 0 h played« It is rather short. Which is incredibly disappointing because everything else about it is fantastic! »👍 anonymous review · Aug 2026 · 6 h played
