The Remake of the End of the Greatest RPG of All Time

This game is simultaneously a commentary on metatextual games being too far up their own butts *and* too far up its own butt that is loops around into something great. It's so sincere in itself and in the rage behind it. 10/10. This is what Jonathan Blow should have become.

Effectively plays like a series of escape room puzzles dressed up as a JRPG. A lot of the fun of this game is around discovering the story and secrets of the game as well as the 'story' around the creation of the game itself. It's a good time, I highly recommend it.

Is the gameplay and time worth the price? Debatable. Is the story being told worth supporting? I very much think so. I would have very much liked to see the "full version" metroidbraina, or the game this is based on; But that's kinda the point, isn't it?

really great puzzle game with a fun, twisting narrative!

Very impressive.

This is a great piece of metafiction that I'll probably be thinking about for a long time. The way it approaches nostalgia and the philosophy of RPG remakes is so fascinating! My only real gripe is that the combat can be slow in the second half of the game. [spoiler]I love Darkhart![/spoiler]
