What players say

Players who love The Dark Crystal find the game a faithful adaptation, but others warn it feels cheap and janky with frequent crashes. The gameplay is a grindy tactics RPG reminiscent of Final Fantasy Tactics, where you buy all gear with gold and some weapon stats are never explained. Difficulty ramps up, and a few say it's unplayable above easy.
