This is without a doubt one of the best stories I've ever experienced. I saw myself in Hazel and in Lacy alike. Having been a child worried about their mother and a Father in a hopeless position in regards to helping my kids at one point this one hits home a few times, but there is also so much whimsy that you can't help but adore the world these folks built. Gameplay is solid, art style is charming, and the music adds so much to the story. Its worth the ticket for entry and then some. Please, play this.
Great storytelling accompanied by equally great music.

Game can have some hiccups here and there in terms of performance or surfaces being kinda "slippery". However the art style, music, and world really carry the roughly 8-10 hour experience. Some of the story elements are a little too simple for my taste. The combat is missing anything outside of a simple 5 press singular button mash "combo". However despite it's flaws I still had fun and fell in love with its beautiful environments, some really fun characters, and AMAZING music.
10! MUITO SUBESTIMADO.
I wish I bought this sooner, The atmosphere in this game is amazing. The story telling, art style, everything goes together so well. The combat is challenging but fair. I look forward to seeing all what this has in store,
Вся игра - это увлекательное, неторопливое приключение с чарующей атмосферой, самобытной мифологией и яркими персонажами, которых мы встречаем на своём пути. Здесь нет ключевых выборов или влияния на историю, но этого и не требуется. Игроку предлагается увидеть мир глазами персонажа и пройти испытания вместе с ним, а не решать за него. Здесь также нет большого разнообразия в сражениях, но их немного и они достаточно простые. Это не касается сражений с боссами, которые являются уникальными, динамичными и являются интересным завершением глав) А вот что здесь есть - это восхитительное музыкальное сопровождение, необычные истории персонажей, таинственные мифические создания, атмосферные локации и тёплый, эмоциональный финал.
great game with Some performance issues on steam deck
This game is an absolute masterpiece ! I love the story it was really good and the designs of the game are amazing as well. I really enjoyed the character and creature designs and the music is great as well.
Story 8.8/10 Gameplay 7/10 Atmosphere 9.5/10 Absolutely Great game, was definetly worth my time and money. Might not be everyones Cup of tea tho, id recommend looking at a few youtube videos first before deciding on buying it. Also the Performance was definetly not as bad as UE5s come nowadays but i had a alot of stutter Problems with 1% lows in single digits for 3-4 Chapter. Might be just a me issue tho...
I just finished this game a moment ago. I had been eagerly waiting for its release and i freaking loved it! Worth the wait for sure! the game play is right up my alley, and i could feel myself getting better with every single battle/puzzle to solve. truly incredible! from the visuals to the amazing sounds and the music!!!! This game is clearly a passion project in many ways. I have recommended it to anyone who will listen. Maybe my favorite game I've played ever! I'm born and raised in the south and a lot of shows, movies, etc. that are set in the south will throw in random 'swampy sounds' and it never crossed my mind as something i cared about. but booting this game up with my family the first thing i said was "hey they even got our frogs to voice act". all those details suddenly mattered to me and felt like seeing home in the game. we've even started pointing things out in our day to day lives like "you know what that building reminds me of?" "south of midnight!" on top of all that the People and story made that feeling triple! every character felt like someone i've probably met irl, the neighbors may as well have been mine right from the bat. i laughed, i sobbed, i felt everything in between. in order to heal, the wounds cant be ignored. i'm glad the story didnt shy away from the history of the south, theres a whole lot of hurt, but a lot of good too. this game embraces the reality of living in the south. I hope more stories like this are told in such beautiful respectful ways. Hazel was an amazing character to play it was truly an honor. If they ever decide to make a sequel, prequel, bonus content, whatever! Im first in line!
