Ratings and reviews

I love this game so much. The storyline and the asmr make it so much fun to play. The only issue i have with it is that it can be a bit confusing at times, and it's all over the place, so it's very easy to get lost, but i would recommend playing. Also, for some reason, the game keeps crashing, and it hasn't happened before, so I'm just waiting for it to be fixed cause i can't enter the game. Update: I restarted my device and downloaded it again, but it reset all my progress..

Just as others have described. I played this game years ago and absolutely loved it. Loved it so much that years later I am downloading it to play again. But unfortunately this time you need a Netflix account to play. Very unfortunate. I had a Netflix account but when they decided to crack down on password sharing I cancelled my account in an effort to offset some of the new accounts they were hoping to gain.

In several years of playing mobile games, this is the best one I have played. No microtransactions or gacha or ads, just a retro pixel adventure game, similar to the Zelda series (specifically the SNES Zelda game, A Link to the Past), and similar high-quality game mechanics to classic games you rarely see anymore. It’s not quite as good as A Link to the Past for SNES because it’s a much shorter game. You do need a Netflix subscription to play it, though. I already had one, so it wasn’t an issue.
