    I love trying new games and when it comes to metroidvania games..count me in. So one of the huge benefits of game pass is that you get to try games that normally you’d wait to see if they become free with games with gold but this one came to game pass so I thought..hey..could be cool. Well...it was pretty bad. Unless your truly desperate for a single player metroidvania type of game thenI love trying new games and when it comes to metroidvania games..count me in.

Well...it was pretty bad. Unless your truly desperate for a single player metroidvania type of game then get this one. It’s not that it’s difficulty is all that bad but I just found it very bland and blah. Sure the old school graphics have its charm but there is a lot more games of this genre that are far more better. But back to difficulty..I found if the controls of the gameplay doesn’t match a difficult game then it truly makes it more of a bore then fun. Games like Celeste are spot on difficult but the precision of control is amazing even if it’s hard as hell..this game tries that middle ground of hard yet not to bad. But I just wasn’t having fun. Even if this game was out in the 80s. I don’t think I would have enjoyed it back then as well. Some people enjoyed this and I did watch the walkthroughs and the more I watched I thought..well..it looks like the difficulty ramps up to kinda dumb. Yes...I know games are suppose to get harder but to the point of getting cheap and you have to keep hoping you get lucky..nah..we live in the year 2019..these flaws cannot be overlooked anymore...but give it a try..you may like it more then I did...I played it for an hour or so and then uninstalled it. Just didn’t pull me in.… Expand

    Poorly designed and just generally terrible. Feels like an intern project..

    A faire vomir un bouc, ce pixel lard de crevard est graphiquement immonde : 3 couleurs qui se battent en duel en 4/3, en 2D et avec des pixels qui vous regardent droit dans les yeux, sans honte et l'air goguenard : "on est des pixels pourravenazes de 1985 et on en est fier..." !

    Ce n'est pas tout, car les bruitages pourris sont d'époque, eux aussi : pas de doute, il s'agit bien d'une    A faire vomir un bouc, ce pixel lard de crevard est graphiquement immonde : 3 couleurs qui se battent en duel en 4/3, en 2D et avec des pixels qui vous regardent droit dans les yeux, sans honte et l'air goguenard : "on est des pixels pourravenazes de 1985 et on en est fier..." !

    Ce n'est pas tout, car les bruitages pourris sont d'époque, eux aussi : pas de doute, il s'agit bien d'une enflure d'indé à deux balles destiné aux rétrons désoeuvrés "c'était mieux avant lolilol".

    Cette abomination n'est bien entendu qu'un énième jeu de plate-forme complètement con en plus d'être moche à crever. Avec un côté japoniais (en prime) bien niais !    … Expand

    Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight takes a simple approach in its metroidvania aspects, but it's still a hell of a challenge and ultimately fun to play.

    Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight is a great game despite its short length and difficulty. It requires skill and patience so don’t expect a casual platformer. It’s polished, beautiful and really reminds you why smaller games are so important to any console.

    The $10 game is a relatively short jaunt with an enjoyable story, and it is challenging, with the right blend of atmosphere and solid combat.
