Reviews
It's insane how under the radar this game has gone. The style it has is so unique and incredible. The gameplay is a bit lacking-- it's a simple enough adventure game with some cool minigames tacked in-- but the art is fantastic and makes it worth playing. The story isn't half bad either, though it didn't surprise me any during my brief 4.5 hour playthrough. It's mostly just a good adventure that's easy to play and beautiful to look at. Well worth an afternoon, especially when it's on sale for less than $10
