What players say

Players praise this sequel as a strong improvement over Dreaming Sarah, blending 2D and 3D exploration with a metroidvania-like structure and 24 transformations. Some find it short and light-hearted, and several warn that some puzzles and achievements are nearly impossible without a guide.
