    A beautiful, artistic and charming game with accessible yet reasonably deep mechanics and plenty of adventure. A real treat and a must have for anyone really.

    As I played Child of Light for review, I found it to be a game that I wasn’t itching to play, but rather enjoyed myself when I did. A pretty, diverting yarn that I’m thrilled exists, but is perhaps a little too nice to recommend wholeheartedly.

    While not the underdog classic some gamers may have hoped for, Child of Light is an enjoyable platform adventure with a surprisingly complex turn-based battle system. It also doesn't hurt that the game is absolutely gorgeous to look at.

    A beautiful journey made possible with the power of the UibArt engine. Child of Light is one of the nicest surprises we've had in a long time.
