ARGH'S PROFILE

I got so confused on this one because I thought the math stuff from the other side held true here as well. In actuality it's deceptively simple.

Haha! That is clever. Isn't that against the rules for spinxes, though? Or is there some story where they can do that?

Aha! I see it now.

The game was quite nice, overall. I'm finding that I really like Craze-style progression systems, with the emphasis on equipment. I particularly love how they give both a stat boost and a skill, since that creates multiple strategic layers and possible tradeoffs. Treasure hunting in the dungeons was really fun, and I love Metroidvanias, so I appreciated the different exploration skills too. People say that the combat was tedious, but I didn't think it was too bad. But I did play on easy mode, so maybe that had something to do with it. :p I thought the skills were inventive and fun, and there was great synergy between the characters. I found boss fights to be far harder than regular fights, which were usually trivial -- mainly because of the limited duration and uses of skills, which only becomes an issue in longer fights. (I also didn't find myself using very many items -- I only used 2 revival droughts, I think -- but again, easy mode.)

Puzzles were also fun, though a bit on the easy side, I thought. The riddles, in particular, were very easy to solve (even though I got one wrong initially, haha), especially since it's easy to brute-force. Funnily enough, the spinx's riddle on the second day completely stumped me, and I was a little worried I would have to solve it! It's cool to see protagonists take the straightforward option for once, but it might have been nice if solving it led to a bonus prize or something.

The story was short and simplistic, but it worked well for what it was. It was nice to see something other than generic medieval Europe for once. I saw the ending coming a mile off, though it was actually a lot happier than I expected!

Those two things are not mutually exclusive. There's a reason why blackface is generally considered racist.

Oh, my apologies, I didn't know how the whole community design thing worked. Never mind, then. It's not a dealbreaker or anything, it just jarred me a little when I glanced across it.
