Oh man. I was not expecting this review…

As a Kickstarter backer who's played a bit of his copy and found it rather slow and tedious, I did. Any game where you're encouraged to just use the Auto Battle instead of actually engaging with the combat system is a game with deep-seeded problems. It's actually pretty amazing how consistent all the reviews of this game seem to be thus far. I have too many good games in my backlog right now to devote time to mediocre ones, but I'll get to playing my copy "for real" at some point in the future.

I'm rather incredulous at the devs allegedly already starting work on a sequel, because I don't think this game is going to do as well as they seem to think it will.

I have played all the Image and Form games except Tower Defense, which I have on 3DS Virtual Console backlog and Build, for which I am waiting on the physical version. I have really enjoyed them all and will probably pick up any of their games until I encounter one I don't like. Personally, I admire their innovative approach to changing genres and look forward to them tackling a new one more than a sequel, but also Dig 2 is one of my favorites so I don't think you can go wrong, unless of course you go on discord and complain about games you are not getting  .

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown (Xbox One):

Great game. Great bosses, fun movement, simple but deep enough combat, big map with all kinds different locations and challenges -- combat, platforming, puzzles, puzzle platforming (think Speed Booster rooms in Metroid games). Before game released they spent a lot promoting game's in-game screenshot system which is probably the first to be used in metroidvania, but i remembered screenshots placed on a map in Assassin's Creed or even in some of the Wii U games. But it's more useful here to remember marked places to explore later, just so you can easier understand what to do visually.

I found had to put some abilities from triggers to other buttons so i can press them in quicker succession for some of the puzzles (triggers on mine Xbox controller got somewhat sticky). Also, neutral dodge off the wall when main character jumps off the wall when you just press dodge button without direction was kinda annoying especially during challenges like Impossible Climb when you had to spend a lot of time hanging on a wall.

Some of the rooms and locations looked fantastic with great backgrounds:



Map design also has cohesive design that intuitively shows the player that there is a checkpoint or a map selling NPC nearby. At first, I never bought any of the maps and explored by myself, but for 100% had to go for a map sweep to look for map sellers all over again. Usually i was only missing one of two treasures on each segments of the map hidden behind fake walls. The only puzzle room i couldn't figure out and had to look up was 2 crushing blocks in Eternal Sands and it was kinda BS -- i spent more than an hour trying all kinds of abilities in this room trying to stop the blocks -- occasionally even glitching the game but the solution was that i needed to bring an enemy from literally across the map. I guess i should have got the hint from the background.

Speaking of glitches -- when fighting a boss, i somehow got warped outside of the arena and game just gave me an achievement for beating it. Because the boss was so cool -- i had to reload from latest checkpoint to redo the boss proper -- regretted it a bit because the boss was actually really tough -- still very fun.

There were also some minor bugs like showing me loot i have already picked up like i didn't, but nothing major or preventing me from 100%-ing the file. My game is now at 99% and the last thing i need to do is to upgrade some of my amulets to full levels but i kinda ran out of crystals currency and don't feel like grinding -- probably would only take me 10 minutes or so, but don't care enough for now. Maybe later, if Ubisoft releases story DLC or something...

Overall, a really great game -- highly recommended.

The thing is, they released an extemely and obviously flawed product and it was profitable for them. Why? Because of the huge masses of people that jump on the hot new thing even if that thing is trash. You buying stuff like this sight unseen is what enables this sort of thing to continue happening. Yes, what they did was scummy, but don't ignore the fact that they could rely on people like you buying it in massive numbers no matter how bad the thing they released is.

Care to elaborate? Were you expecting something like Silksong or just didn't like what was shown?

I was hoping for pizza tower on the switch. I was prepared to rebuy it to support tour de pizza. Plus pizza tower is one of the best games ever made.
