How it feels
A pulpy, cartoony top-down adventure with lighthearted exploration and puzzle-solving, guided by four distinct characters.

What players say
Players compare this to a top-down Zelda with four characters, each able to solve different puzzles, but many find the constant backtracking across the same map with every character tiresome. The story is forgettable and the game is on the easy side, while some report glitches, crashes, and softlocks that hurt the experience.
