The game is a bit slow at the start and things are kind of boring until you have unlocked 3/4 abilities, however, it is a great game to play for a roguelite where you're a crow with some weapons. It does play into the need for collections and want for shiny things like a normal crow would. While the ending is typical, it is a great game all the same.

While it is a nice 8 bit style game it is what it is for a 2014 game. It feels like a company's first project or one that wasn't ironed out completely.

Let's start with the cons:
- Story line is extremely basic. You: chosen one; why? Never really explained. The evil person is greedy and haughty; why? Also not explained very well. (It's a power grab but to what ends?)
- Controls are very basic and all actions requiring jump, climb or obstacles will notify you every single time with a ! above the characters head: for the entire game. Cut scenes are different, but once you leave the village I feel like the notifications about platforming should have stopped.
- Spoilers: The dialogue on the doors are the exact same every time regardless of how many previous doors you have opened. If I didn't "have the sight" the first door shouldn't have let me pass. This would have been a good time to provide some background lore!
- NPC dialogue is kind of lacking overall. There's a child talking about how they saved a baby bird but then it bit them so they fed it to a dog, and another guy saying he told his kids normal children play in the dirt so they don't ask for toys and video games but the world we live in seems devoid of societal pleasures, however we own a tv, gramophone and have electricity in our house despite one guy having a gorilla for a girlfriend???

Pros:
- Short game especially if you're a steam achievement hunter. You can get all the achievements in about 4 hours with 2 play-throughs for both good and bad endings.
- The style is very retro and each new area was detailed and colorful (or lack of if intentional to tone).

However, I would not pay full price for this; wait til a Steam or Humble Bundle offer and get it for less than $3.

Cute troubleshooting game but it does have some issues.

  • It doesn't appear to format well on monitors so the buttons are often cut off. This also means regardless of if full size or windowed it will have a giant black border around it.
  • Hard to follow the story line due to swiping with the mouse will often jump 2-3 slides ahead of the narration.
  • The tactile clicking of the tools and objects are extremely sensitive and if you're a few pixels off you won't accomplish the action you're attempting to do; such as rotating the object.

However, if you're looking for an easy game to get perfect games or more achievements in this can easily be finished in less than 2 hours.

Love the retro style art but doesn't feel clunky or outdated. The cutscene animations for upgrades were very interesting and not always what I was expecting. Especially when it came to the dream sequence with Duff or the horrified look on the fish's face during enhancing a dish. Very chill all in one puzzle, adventure, collection and task story game.
