    Ary and the Secret of the Seasons is a good game, although there are some aspects, like the combat, that still need a lot of work. Still, we’ve enjoyed this humble production.

Only thing holding this title back are the sometimes janky animations, and a few unfortunate bugs. Great buy if you can find it on sale, I'd keep an eye out for more titles from this developer in the future. Had fun with this one.… Full Review »
