Despite these criticisms, the storytelling and art style are highlighted as standout features, making it a recommended choice for fans of cute and humorous narrative-driven games.

    • “I absolutely love the story and the art style!!”
    • “It's funny, ironic, and has a surprisingly dark story at some bits.”

  • gameplay46 mentions

    Overall, the gameplay is praised for its smooth controls, fun mechanics, and charming aesthetics, with many players enjoying the humorous dialogue and engaging puzzles. However, some reviewers noted that the game is relatively short and may require payment to access more content, which detracts from the overall experience.

    • “It's aesthetically wonderful but it's literally just old Zelda mechanics, and just isn't original enough outside of the art and the humorous writing.”

    The music in the game has received widespread praise for its catchy and cheerful quality, effectively complementing the gameplay and enhancing the overall experience. Many players highlighted the soundtrack as a standout feature, with specific mentions of its ability to match various scenes and evoke a fun atmosphere.

  • monetization21 mentions

    The monetization model of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the requirement to pay for the game upfront despite it being advertised as free. While some appreciate the absence of ads and the option for cosmetic in-app purchases, others feel misled by the lack of a demo and the sudden paywall, suggesting that a more transparent approach with ads or a clearer pricing structure would be preferable. Overall, the consensus indicates a desire for a more user-friendly monetization strategy.

    • “Very fun and funny game for free and there are no ads.”
    • “Good game, good jokes, no ads.”
    • “I thought the in-app purchases would be cosmetics or ad-free, but no, you need to spend $5 for the game.”
    • “Opened up and asked to buy the game, no demo, nothing. Granted, £5 is a completely reasonable price to ask, but advertising as free and then doing this rug pull is disgraceful (and possibly violating consumer rights).”
    • “It won't let me play the game; it says I have to pay for it. This is stupid. Why not just advertise a game that costs money instead of just advertising in the game?”
  • replayability7 mentions

    Overall, the game offers limited replayability, primarily featuring a "boss rush" mode and an endless roguelike area. While some players find the experience enjoyable enough to revisit, others note the short playtime and lack of additional content as drawbacks. The game's charm and humor may encourage some players to replay, but the overall replay value is considered low.

    • “And there's a replayable 'boss rush'-like post game that allows for some replayability.”
    • “A nice story and fun characters, with a 'boss rush' at the end to allow for some replayability.”
    • “Hilarious with a high replay value.”
    • “Overall, there isn't much in the way of replayability (though there is the endless train, roguelike area).”
    • “The only downsides I have are that it's really short, about 2-3 hours, but for 4-5 bucks that can be overlooked. It's lacking replay value; other than the train, the enemies just up and vanish, so the town has very little to do.”
    • “Cute stylized graphics, but the demo was very short and had nothing indicating the scale of the full game or the replayability.”
  • stability5 mentions

    Overall, players report a mixed experience regarding stability, with some enjoying a bug-free gameplay while others encounter notable bugs that remain unaddressed by the developer.

    • “Good game, just a little bit on the buggy side.”

  • emotional5 mentions

  • grinding4 mentions

    Players generally enjoy the grinding aspect of the game, praising its fun mechanics, cute art, and engaging lore. However, many express frustration with the cumbersome controls on mobile devices, particularly regarding the tedious weapon switching and navigation, which detracts from the overall experience. Suggestions for improvement include implementing a hotbar for quicker item access.

    • “Also switching between the main tools is tedious and inefficient, so maybe add some sort of hotbar to allow the player to quickly switch between items rather than individually equipping them.”
    • “Thought weapon change is tedious for no reason, being -1 star.”
    • “The switching between items and navigation via touchpad can get tedious.”
