How it feels

Running through desert ruins, rhythmically throwing spears of light at shadow creatures with linier but satisfying combat.

What players say

Players say this is a short but surprisingly tough action game where the sun spear mechanic, throwing, recalling, and timing an explosion, is the highlight, though technical issues and a generic story hold it back.
