  • gameplay
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is characterized by a humorous and engaging mechanic that allows players to weaponize their environment, providing a mix of freedom and narrative structure.

    • “There is no permadeath or other specifically roguelike mechanics.”
    • “The idea of the game is a good one, albeit reminiscent of the weapon-breaking mechanic everyone hated from Zelda: Breath of the Wild; however, in practice, the controls are clunky, the localization is weak, and while the art has its charms, it is still lacking.”
    • “The simplicity doesn't hurt the game too much, since it seems to be mostly focused on humor and gameplay, though I wish there were more quests and lore associated with the bosses of the game.”
  • story
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The story is fairly simple, since it's mainly about a weapon merchant, Weaco, trying to find a legendary sword due to her love of weaponry.”
    • “The simplicity doesn't hurt the game too much, since it seems to be mostly focused on humor and gameplay, though I wish there were more quests and lore associated with the bosses of the game.”

  • grinding
