  • The game has a fun and interesting twist near the end, making it more complex than it initially appears.
  • The relic system allows for significant customization and build options, enhancing the combat experience.
  • The puzzles are engaging and offer multiple solutions, providing a creative gameplay experience.
  • The game suffers from technical issues, including freezing and missing textures that hinder gameplay.
  • Combat can become repetitive, and the game does a poor job of teaching players to explore all available moves.
  • The first impression is terrible, with a lack of polish and a story that feels clichéd and uninspired.
  • story
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story revolves around Freyja's quest for revenge against Beladim, the lord of the mist who destroyed her hometown. While the narrative features some simplistic and cliched twists, it manages to surprise players at times, offering an enjoyable albeit campy experience. However, the reliance on time manipulation as a mechanic often leads to frustrating moments where the main character fails to act, and players must replay the game to fully explore the story and unlock additional content.

    • “The plot eventually diverges in a way I didn't expect, and while it's nothing groundbreaking, it did surprise me and it's enjoyable, if a little campy.”
    • “Story is simple; it's Freyja's journey to take revenge against Beladim, the Lord of the Mist who destroyed her hometown.”
    • “And there are some twists in the story, which, while simplistic and cliched, is honestly kind of cool.”
    • “That aside, the game is okay; it's not very pretty, the gameplay is decent, the music is not bad, but the story is awful. A bunch of things that happen can be easily stopped with time manipulation, which is the main mechanic of the game, but the main character just goes 'oh no' and lets things happen.”
    • “Potentially, the player would go through the map hunting for the next story trigger.”
    • “Another issue is that you need to beat the game twice to unlock every area, with your second time offering some different enemies along the way, and a very slightly different story, along with one expanded stage.”
  • gameplay
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally considered decent but flawed, with some mechanics feeling outdated and occasionally buggy, particularly regarding the time manipulation feature. While it offers enjoyable elements reminiscent of other metroidvania titles, it lacks the polish and depth of its contemporaries, leading to mixed experiences among players. Additionally, the transition to 3D stages adds variety, though mastering the mechanics can be challenging.

    • “There are features that will make you think it's a bug for instant death but not really because it's a mechanic used to defeat a specific enemy that appears later in the game.”
    • “I am not a fan of metroidvania games, but still picked this one up and it looks interesting for me. The gameplay is similar to Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, but this one isn't as big or better like that one, but still offers an enjoyable game.”
    • “The gameplay does enter into 3D at stages, which mixes up the gameplay.”
    • “Keep in mind that this game came out 10 years ago in 2010 on Nintendo 3DS, so graphics are aged and gameplay is kind of faulty as well.”
    • “There are features that will make you think it's a bug for instant death, but not really because it's a mechanic used to defeat a specific enemy that appears later in the game.”
    • “I've only managed to defeat one boss so far, which took a few attempts to get used to the mechanics.”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are generally described as stiff and aged, reflecting its 2010 release on the Nintendo 3DS. While some users find the artwork appealing, they note that the overall visual quality does not compensate for the game's shortcomings. Despite this, a few reviewers suggest that the game may still hold value for those willing to look past its graphical flaws.

    • “Keep in mind that this game came out 10 years ago in 2010 on Nintendo 3DS, so the graphics are aged.”
    • “Graphics are also great.”
    • “Graphics are really stiff, but that's nothing compared to the bad game.”
    • “Keep in mind that this game came out 10 years ago in 2010 on Nintendo 3DS, so the graphics are aged and gameplay is kind of faulty as well.”
    • “If you can get past the graphics, I think this game is probably an underrated gem, something that you can't really appreciate unless you play it all the way through.”
  • music
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players praising standout tracks, particularly a rock piece reminiscent of a Buckethead guitar solo, while others criticize certain electronic songs as subpar. Overall, the soundtrack is described as enjoyable, contributing positively to the gameplay experience despite its inconsistencies.

    • “The low poly art is pleasing, the music is a banger, the combat is very fun once you have all your moves, and the relics add a ton of customization and build options.”
    • “The soundtrack is pretty good and the abilities you get really help you in the game since you don't have a difficult select option.”
    • “The music features some excellent tunes, like a rock track that sounds like a Buckethead guitar solo.”
    • “The music is also seriously mixed, with some excellent tunes, like this one rock track that sounds like a Buckethead guitar solo, and then some other horrible electronic songs.”
    • “The soundtrack is pretty goof and the abilities you get really help you in the game since you don't have a difficulty select option.”
  • stability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game experiences frequent freezes that can disrupt gameplay and lead to lost progress, particularly noted in stage 3. However, players report that the PC version is generally more stable compared to the PS4 release.

    • “This was not the first time I was killed by an oversight. In stage 3, I reached a part where the game freezes and prompts you to activate the time rewind. However, I arrived at that part without enough magic points, so I couldn't activate it. Since the game was frozen, I couldn't regain my magic points either. I decided to press reset, but that broke the cutscene that played before the freeze, forcing me to close the game and redo the entire section.”
    • “Had several freezes and lost game time, but the PC version is still more stable than the PS4 release.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players express frustration with the grinding required to upgrade stats and acquire moves, often resorting to cheating to avoid the tedious process. Many feel that the game is poorly designed, as only a couple of moves are truly effective, rendering the extensive grinding unnecessary and unenjoyable.

    • “It requires grinding to upgrade stats and acquire moves, which I just cheated the points for because there's no way I would consider wasting my time as fun.”
    • “It's a bad game because there are a lot of moves to acquire, but only two that carried me through the game; thankfully, I didn't waste time grinding for the points.”
    • “It requires grinding to upgrade stats and acquire moves, which I just cheated the points for because there's no way I would consider wasting my time as fun.”
  • humor
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game primarily stems from its time-reversal mechanic, which players find both amusing and somewhat absurd, as it creates a sense of "cheating" while battling enemies. While this feature adds a comedic twist, it is described as a novelty that lacks depth and excitement over time. Overall, the humor is appreciated but not consistently engaging.

    • “It's funny that you can reverse and set time in motion while hacking away at enemies; it almost feels like the whole game is cheating, but you have a mana bar that drains, so there is some limitation on this.”
    • “See, in this game you can reverse time, which is both game-breaking and at times hilarious. It's mostly just a novelty that never really gets repetitive but also never really gets very exciting either.”
