How it feels

Flying through ancient ruins while using god-given powers to solve puzzles and battle mythical creatures feels like a mythic, flowing adventure with light tactical adjustments.

What players say

Players praise the Greek mythology setting and glide-based platforming as a relaxed change of pace, with forgiving controls suitable for playing with kids. However, many warn about a deeply broken save system: autosaves are rare and quitting a level resets progress to the start, forcing completion in one sitting. There is no manual save.
