This game was in the line of fire for a recent Metroid craze.
It can best be summarized as: Metroid + (any 2D souls-like)

B E A U T I F U L art and music in this game.

This game isn't the easiest to figure out, and suffers the common Castletroid problems of back tracking, and looking up guides when I missed a small breakable wall.
That being said it's not the longest game either so it only occured once or twice.
Story wise I can't say I loved it, only because the story continually awed me with concepts and questions that I wanted to explore, only to never really have the opporunity. I want to care about these characters, but story just kinds ends....

Maybe the true ending is worth replaying it for.
