    Since I dont round up, this game is a 6 on the scale, because for me its a 6.5, it doesnt quite reach 7 but 6 would be too harsh. Its a nice little zelda like game with partner combat but it certainly has some issues. The combat can be pretty clunky, some bosses were slightly too cryptic for my taste atleast, treasures feel almost not rewarding since most of them just contain experienceSince I dont round up, this game is a 6 on the scale, because for me its a 6.5, it doesnt quite reach 7 but 6 would be too harsh. Its a nice little zelda like game with partner combat but it certainly has some issues. The combat can be pretty clunky, some bosses were slightly too cryptic for my taste atleast, treasures feel almost not rewarding since most of them just contain experience points and I found a few little bugs/glitches throughout my playthrough, one of them being pretty bad. I was hovering in mid air and then just ascending into infinity. Nice to look at, but I had to reload since I was not able to get back down. But despite all this and the game being kind of boring sometimes and even too easy (especially bosses, enemies sometimes are more challenging), this game makes for a nice and somewhat relaxing pick up and play time. I would recommend this game to people that like having combat depending on a partner, who like that distinctive visual style and who want to experience a zelda like game that still is quite different. Overall, a decent game.… Expand

    The game is quite enjoyable but the backtracking, sound work, finicky control scheme and unnecessary fight sequences drained much of the enjoyment I experienced.

    Fabulous trip to fight against the darkness is quite a success. Simple combat system and easy puzzles are challenging for younger players only. [Issue#200]

    For everyone who ever thought that commanding a beast can only be great, this game demonstrates otherwise. It has good points but they are few and far between.
