I'm sure the word "cozy" has been used hundreds of times during this game's development. It's basically BOTW and Stardew Valley with maybe a little bit of Animal Crossing, no surprise then that the Switch version seems to work better than the PC version, as it might be the main focus.

You can hang out with friends like most MMOs but it is very single-player driven.

Did I say this is cozy? Guilty pleasure but there's certainly nothing wrong with it, even if the opening is so much like BOTW's that it may as well be an homage.

It feels weird saying this but you should actually play the Switch version if you're going to play this.

I played this as a kid and all I remember is a very weird experience. Playing it today and it's not very weird. Kinda wish it measured up to my memories of it, but what ever really does?

You collect items that you can use through out the stage and you also shoot balls at monsters. One of the items is a ladder, which is pretty self-explanatory (you climb it to reach higher spots); another lets you jump higher; there's a bomb which might be for blowing up enemies, I don't know. You also collect "K" blocks which are basically Mario coins. Not sure what they do, but I'm amazed they made all sorts of configurations out of them but still managed to never put three Ks in a row... ahem.

(I take that back)

It plays perfectly fine, you can get pretty powerful pretty fast if you collect three balls to shooty with. I think the weirdest aspect of this is that they brought this guy back as a boss in Bad Dudes vs DragonNinja and made him the last boss in Fighter's Destiny: Karnov's Revenge. For whatever reason y'know. Now I want to go play that and see if he still be shoot the balls.

I miss the days when wish fulfillment also included weird bald shirtless Russian dudes with handlebar mustaches.
