What the written reviews praise

RPG Site praises the balance between old-school exploration and movement, while GameScout highlights the level design and sense of exploration. Rock Paper Shotgun’s early impressions also describe the flying sword as a major change to the slow first-person rhythm. These are attributed opinions, rather than facts all reviewers must agree on.

What players argue about

GameScout warns that the combat may put some players off. Rock Paper Shotgun’s early impressions describe the opening as potentially frustrating even for players familiar with this style. The high Steam approval snapshot can coexist with those specific criticisms. Neither cited PC review supplies a measured Switch 2 frame-rate or resolution figure.

Is $19.99 the right anchor?

RPG Site estimates about 20 hours to reach the first ending. The publisher separately advertises a 40-plus-hour full experience. Those scopes help frame the US $19.99 list price, but neither is a guarantee of every player’s completion time.

Is the game too hard?

There is one fixed difficulty. The opening is the steep part. See the difficulty page for what players use instead of a mode switch.
