Dandara has its moments, particularly in a desert library occupied by imperial troops. It's up to the player to explore it and unearth the spirits that literally animate it. The implementation of static platforms, and how they rumble into movement halfway through, is excellent. The level design works, the music and art compliment the setting, even the boss fight that takes place once you work your way back to the entrance/exit is inventive. Too bad the rest of the game doesn't quite measure up.
