    i had high hopes for Ocean's heart, but it was clear from the get-go that a polished game, this is not. First off the controls are just plain wonky, why is "action" the same button as "roll" with no option to separate the two? most of the times i'm rolling when im trying to talk to someone, or talking to a sign when i'm trying to roll... WHYYY?? speaking of rolling, the game has no runi had high hopes for Ocean's heart, but it was clear from the get-go that a polished game, this is not. First off the controls are just plain wonky, why is "action" the same button as "roll" with no option to separate the two? most of the times i'm rolling when im trying to talk to someone, or talking to a sign when i'm trying to roll... WHYYY?? speaking of rolling, the game has no run button but the roll does make you faster. meaning you're just constantly mashing roll everywhere you go. third, the quests are absolutely terrible. Your "mission" from the get-go is just unimaginative. The quests all boil down to.. oh you should talk to X, maybe they know what to do. then you proceed to go to X. which then forwards the quest. "you should go to Y" which then proceeds to you to the next part. Sidequests? just as boring. "hey someone over there wants you to get something", goes to npc, "hey, i want you to get get this for me" like.. what. who writes these dialogue? everything is just mediocre. Skip this one even if it was free.… Expand

    Speedrunners will likely delight in ripping through this game, while others will enjoy a leisurely adventure as they poke into every inch of the world plumbing for secrets. A magical adventure tinged with nostalgia can be hard to find these days, but Ocean’s Heart delivers a stellar, fun experience that may leave you craving more.

    Ocean’s Heart is a game that clearly comes from a place of deep affection for the classic Legend of Zelda games, and it does a fine job of channeling those. But with its gorgeous setting and endearing hero, it also finds its own place within the space of “Zelda-likes”.

    A 2D Zelda clone with a large, charming world full of secrets that unfortunately is not on par with the series that it copies, but can surely offer a great experience to Zelda fans.
