Absolutely brilliant GBA style action-adventure with some very polished gameplay, solid exploration, a great aesthetic and soundtrack, and a cute story. It's one of the best games to come out all year, highly recommended!!

A top down zelda inspired game that honestly, surprised me a LOT.

-Is not just a copy-paste of an average classic zelda game, it has really unique mechanics and powerups that match its identity and it doesn't just feel like "Oh, this powerup is like THAT one from X game".
-Puzzles are not really hard, but they are INCREDIBLY CREATIVE, they require you to demonstrate if you truly understand the game mechanics to solve them.
-A lot of movement techniques wich they feel so GOOD to use and move around. Exploring the hole map feels really comfortable.
-Rewards exploration with a lot of secret optional areas, definitely worth to 100%
-Combat has its charm, it has decent enemy variety and their AI can take advantage of the same mechanics that you use (such as shooting projectiles at corners to ricochet them). It is fairly simple, but gets catchy when a lot of enemies pile up on you.
-Music is a bop, visuals and artstyle fantastic.


My only pet peeve with the game is the narrative part, wich is honestly understandable considering the target audience of this game is more for the young, but still, most NPCs are uninteresting, some of the secondary characters lack some personality besides their art style, and the main storyline is really short, linear and predictable.

But even with that said, this game is UNDERRATED ASF

This does for the GBC Zeldas what Shovel Knight did for NES platformers.

It's a super fun, aesthetically unique tribute that modernizes the experience while adding its own distinct twists and personality to the genre. The environments are vibrant and colorful, the exploration and upgrades interesting and rewarding, and the movement options feels smooth and satisfying when chained together.

This is a *very* good action adventure.
