I meant to do this sooner ‘cus I beat it on the 4th of December! Oh no I forgot! I actually don’t have too much to say really as it’s a quick snappy game!
The music was excellent, because of how short a loop was (success or fail) it didn’t feel like it was dragging on and combat was generally so snappy that it felt like you really had a lot of momentum going forward.
The way the OST was composed makes it really hard for me to go “yes this track”, and that’s a good thing! The music is clearly composed (and is evident from the OST with every battle track having an (Intro) track) so that you can on the fly swap between the tracks without a jarring interruption to the music, to the map, to a battle, to the map, to an event, to the map, and so on. But to make sure I pick a track and not go “All :)”, Self-Defense.
The story is simple, but honestly only once you’ve got it all, otherwise it is a ~mystery~. Which is great I love that. All the characters really stuck with me and even made me a little teary eyed at the end, what the heck how’d they do that to me!? Oh right it was mostly Riggs and Books.
That’s it! I put 35 hours in to it and if I say much more about it it’ll be spoilers! Books is already a spoiler but they’re too lovely not to have here, look at them breaking the fourth wall slightly and leaning on their character frame! Go play it if you like deck-builders, or rad soundtracks, or a possum who is just Hashtag Mood (that’s Riggs)
