Adventure of Rikka - The Cursed Kingdom

As a fan of the Zelda Games, this brings back memories and i am happy to recommend this game. the graphics are beautifully done, the storyline is done well. and the combat is also amazing. i do have one thing though, i'm not sure if i'm missing it or completely oblivious to it. but there isn't a map to see where you need to go or where you are at. If a map was added i think that would be amazing, otherwise this game is a 10/10 for me

If you want some casual top-down Zelda-like gameplay then this game is for you. The music is really nice and the pixel art style is very cute. Unfortunately the story in this game is extremely lacking; there is a serviceable premise and start to the plot, but the story elements of the game peter out after that. There are many side objectives, like numerous stand-alone puzzles to solve and collectibles to find. Sometimes I would get lost in the game and not know where the next dungeon was, but wandering around was not boring since you would come across many puzzles, NPCs, and so on. There are some interesting events in the game, like beating some bosses will alter certain aspects of the area that their dungeon is located in but the game, overall, is pretty derivative. The developer has been steadily releasing updates since the launch of the game, fixing bugs, improving animations, and adding Quality of Life features. Major props to the developer for that. Personally, I find the current price of $11.99 to be too steep for what this game has to offer (I took my time throughout the game and beat it in about 7 hours), so I would recommend getting it on sale if this price is not lowered.

I played for 6 hours and this game is good !

This game has a beautiful and nostalgic art style that really brings back memories. As a puzzle lover myself, I find the game's challenges to be both satisfying and entertaining. I can tell that the developers put a lot of care and attention into crafting this game, and it really shows in the overall experience. I'm definitely looking forward to spending more time with it and exploring all that it has to offer.

Fun retro Zelda-like adventure

Only 2hrs in, but so far i love the zelda vibes. Looking forward to more puzzle solving and searching for secrets! If you enjoy chill games and just having a good time, this is for you!

This is a really well-made Zelda-like with lots of heart put into it. Movement is fluid, controls are spot-on and the areas as well as dungeons come with interesting puzzles and bosses. The only thing I think the game is lacking is story-wise. It's simply not very interesting and kinda stereotypical. But still, I'm enjoying the game very much.

Pretty neat game, though there are still some improvements to be made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tr2Ec6TnPRQ

When it comes to 2D Zelda-likes, there is nothing more straightforward than The Adventure of Rikka. And that can be both good and bad, depending on your expectations. This is wholeheartedly an indie game, with that sweet indie jank, but also with loads of charm. You can get softlocked, UI is mediocre at best, story is... present, I guess? But it's also a fun way to spend a couple of hours for a couple of bucks. You can see that this is a product of genuine passion and while the skillset or budget might not be fully there, it's still worth it in my opinion. There are a ton of collectibles, some very clever puzzles and some dungeons have great designs. I think what this game lacks the most are QoL features - map is useless, UI is barely legible and there are only two slots for items without a possibility to quickly switch them. I wish the developer all the best with the next project! Despite all the cons, I really enjoyed my time with this game and I will surely check out whatever they release next.

Really enjoyed this game. It is challenging at times, and it is fun to play. I played on the Deck and works great. Defenitely worth trying it
