And that's required for a good ending, or a lot of the useful stuff.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
135 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The main feature of this game is the ability to unlock cards with all sort of spells that help us through out the adventure, this blend of metroidvania mechanics make for an interesting take.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
65 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is consistent (subjectively I quite like it) and the soundtrack is pretty good.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
What first drew me into it definitely was it's gorgeous and colorful art style, both in terms of character design, as well as in it's background art.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As for sounds, well, there are no voices and just text we read, so the only thing to analyze here is the sound effects which are many and are highlighted by the combat sections, which again, are the ones that shine the most due to the many things happening, so many cards and abilkities, somany sound effects, good stuff.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Its controller-oriented movement and twin-stick combat translate naturally to the handheld format, although the amount of action and projectiles on screen means careful attention is still necessary during demanding encounters.
