    Blue Fire is like if you took Ocarina of Time-era Hyrule and broke it up into a thousand platforms. As cool as that might sound, the game's difficulty varies wildly, and it's easy to get lost since there's no map in this Stadia version.

The time I had playing was great and the puzzle levels were the right mix of frustrating and satisfying. Minor issue is that it failed to keep my attention but honestly, that's difficult nowadays.… Expand

It has a similar fun-factor and precise platforming feel and challenge. You can upgrade your character's ability in a bunch of different ways that keep the game feeling new and fun as you progress.

    The graphics and design are beautiful and the "feel" of the game is smooth/fluid. It generally plays flawlessly on Stadia.

    This isn't a RDR2 level AAA masterpiece, but for 10-20 hours of challenging platforming fun, this is a great game. It is the type of game that makes you a better gamer for playing.    … Expand

Not only is the theming a kind of cute take on souls-like worlds, but it also features the bonfire mechanic (albeit in the form of shrines) and there is no map. The platforming is also exceptionally difficult, but satisfying when you finally get it right.… Expand

    Play this game, but not on STADIA!

    Because of the bloom (which turns the image very muddy when combined with streaming compression) and a bit of small input lag (which comes from streaming games) some of the most fun bonus levels are almost incompletable.

    ------------------------

    If you ever wanted a 3D-Platformer with Zelda dungeons and combat which implements elements from Hollow Knight, Dark Souls and A Hat in Time then this game is for you. Enough said.
    This game was clearly made with passion and I can't wait for the next thing from this studio.

    Pros:
    - Great interconnected world and level design
    - Fluid platforming and combat gameplay
    - Always fair (your deaths are always your own fault)
    - Very hard bonus levels... still amazed I got through all of them.
    - Good game length (about 10 hours when completing the story, all sidequests, getting all items and completing the dlc)
    - Multiple difficulty options, which actually change the leveldesign
    - Secret rubber ducks :)

    Cons:
    - This game is very bad to speedrun because of a load of small problems (If ROBI Studios reads this, then PLEASE add an options to skip ALL cutscenes!)
    - Limited replayability (the difficulty options and perma-death mode are nice, but some challenge modes, a cheat menu, boss rush or a new game plus would be greatly appreciated)
    - The bloom and glaring whiteness of the voids can be too much at times. Had to switch from the Stadia to the Steam version because the visibility was just too bad in certain voids)    … Expand
