As a huge fan of metrovanias, this is one of the first metroidvania games I beat on a mobile phone. The controls definitely seem made for mobile, and the challenge is just right If you like games that are super hard, but where you learn from each run. The only thing holding it back was some design choices, parts if you died you had to go through a gauntlet that was tougher than the previous time before you died to recover your lost salts. But other than that, great game and visuals.

A fun game for the roughly 8 hours it lasted. The controls are good, better than might be expected when playing on a phone. Some more story would have been nice, and some general sense of direction wouldn't have hurt either (it's kind of hard to remember every skull or pillar you've seen) although the map made it doable. It's easy going for the first couple if hours, the the difficulty ramps up considerably. I'm not the greatest twitch player though and still managed to finish it.

It has a very unique metroidvania platforming, needed some time to get used to. Tbh I'm not really that good at playing metroidvania games that has a vague story progression on an expansive map is pretty confusing for me, pretty easy to get lost, it's just my rambling, DON'T actually add the guiding system, it'll ruin the metroidvania fun. overall: graphics 5/5, controls 3/5, story 4/5
