What players say

Players praise the variety of attacks and side content, but warn that finishing the game requires collecting hidden journal pages with a weak map system. Many compare it favorably to Castlevania, Momodora, or Bloodstained, calling it an ambitious love letter to Flash-era metroidvanias.
