    • “The pixel art is sharp and nice, and there's a small story so far broken between the main areas, which adds depth to the gameplay.”
    • “The story is neat, and I was expecting the classic 'evil wizard that's bent on destruction,' but the very last level proved me wrong.”
    • “The plot twists felt forced and didn't add to the overall narrative.”
