  • Summary: Kaku has lived alone on a snowy mountaintop for years, always dreaming about the world that lay beyond. Now, the ancient keeper from the mysterious ruins told him that it's his destiny to go on a continent-spanning adventure with a pig.

    Maybe some legendary creatures are waiting for him?    Kaku has lived alone on a snowy mountaintop for years, always dreaming about the world that lay beyond. Now, the ancient keeper from the mysterious ruins told him that it's his destiny to go on a continent-spanning adventure with a pig.

    KAKU - Ancient Seal comes with some big ARPG ambitions. Yes, there are times in which rough moments pop up, and for me, the platforming elements are too floaty. But nevertheless, this is a great game with a wonderful world to explore, pulled along by some decent combat and Zelda-like puzzles.

    Kaku: Ancient Seal is one of those games that reminds me why I love discovering smaller projects. It’s ambitious, heartfelt, and fun, even when it stumbles. The team at BINGOBELL clearly poured their hearts into this world, and it shows. If you can forgive some rough edges, you’ll find a charming adventure that scratches that open-world itch. Kaku: Ancient Seal won’t dethrone Zelda or Elden Ring, but it’s not trying to. It’s a confident, creative, and surprisingly polished debut from a small studio with big ideas. It delivers a solid adventure full of charm and discovery, and it left me excited to see what these developers do next.

    KAKU - Ancient Seal is a fun adventure RPG. However, it lacks originality and this holds it back. If you fancy wasting time with a familiar romp, this could be the game for you.
