What a beautiful experience.

This game captures my favorite feeling in games - a true sense of exploration, where I am navigating my own way through an unknown world, discovering secrets mundane or (in this case) something approaching magic. I have seen it framed as "the exploration of Breath of the Wild put into 2D," and I don't think that's wrong.

On top of that, it has an evocative score (with occassional rhythm game), great voice acting, and a narrative consistent with the studio's history.
