Lunacid is really really good if you're into the kind of game that's more an exercise in ambience and exploration than it is a game about action combat or difficulty. Which is to say, I think this game is maybe too easy, some of the spells especially are broken strong. That being said, I don't think that really detracts from what Lunacid does very well. This game is shockingly restrained. Through much of the early game I kept expecting to encounter a big boss or extremely scary threatening enemy, but it never really came, and honestly I very much think that's for the best. Running around with your arsenal of weapons and spells is a pretty good time and the world feels extremely good. I do think that some of the vibes fall off in the later game, especially as you get strong, but the way the maps weave in themselves and connect to each creates this perfect maze that feels both easy to get lost in and easy to visualize. There are also of course an absolute plethora of secrets. This game is very much designed for people who love searching for secrets and puzzles. There are times where I think the game could be a liiiiittle more giving with it's hints, but it's down to taste really.
Definitely a strong recommend from me.
