One dungeon can give trouble to some people. Moreover, backtracking to the town can be time-consuming if you don’t know what you are supposed to do. There is no information on what you are supposed to do, and once you reached the new region, you are forced to explore everything with little information on where to go. Although your goal is quite straightforward in the beginning, the post-game content is way too vague. It can be confusing to progress the story. It feels as if the areas weren’t expected to be explored at all. A lot of areas are empty and look weird with the “sprite glitches”. While I don’t mind exploring these kinds of places, the post-game area doesn’t seem to be polished enough. Unlike Pokémon, areas are very vast with a lot of trees surrounding them. Since you are bound to replace your monsters as you progress, you also need to level them up each time before they can contribute to your party.Īs a game that relies on exploration, it’s easy to get lost. This doesn’t come without a tradeoff though. Luckily, you can always out level the enemies in the wild to have a 100% chance of capturing them. It’s easy to meet a level 30 boss in the first few minutes of the game, and the monster in the next town can wipe your party easily if you are not careful. You are bound to meet monsters that can be too strong to beat, whether it’s because of the level gap or stat. Monsters don’t have the same base stats due to how breeding works. You can increase the level cap of your monsters by beating the chief tamers located in each town, but strangely, they are way easier to beat compared to the wild monsters. However, some areas have high-leveled monsters, forcing you to either grind or follow the story progression at the beginning.

This means that you are free to explore the whole region in any order that you want regardless of your monster level and story progression. The game is played similar to Pokémon games with an open-world area. I couldn’t understand the correlation of what the enemies are saying to the plot, and the story just ends without any explanation. I’m not sure if both endings have the same story, but the one that I got gives some sort of premises of an adventure, only to be shot down on what happens afterward.

On the good side, the game has two endings, and I liked the twist that the bad ending has. There seem to be some hints of them in places you explored, but since it doesn’t point to the said character, I couldn’t be sure if they are referring to the same person. I don’t know the motive of the main antagonist, nor the reason for everything that happened in the game. The only thing that I got from it is what happened in the past, years before the main character was born. The lack of proper build-up makes the story loses its value. I believe the difference was caused by several graphical changes since the early access version, but it still makes the visual look inconsistent regardless.

However, the rest of the game is portrayed in full color, with some trees having a slightly different contrast sometimes. Monsters have a similar style to Game Boy Color visuals with the minimal color and the frequent use of white.

The game uses pixelated visuals, albeit with a little twist.
