The movement is solid and frustrating but luckily the game is open world; you can walk wherever you want and there's many ways of reaching the top, scaling in difficulty.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It’s a sweet ending for sure and I was laughing out loud at the map showing my route and me falling down again and again and again xD But that’s my only complaint.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
25 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game is packed with content, and because it is open-world, the player is largely in charge of tuning their own difficulty.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sound design further enhances immersion, with environmental effects and subtle audio cues helping bring the wilderness to life.
Controls

10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
