Having breathtaking

Initially, your character is in an abandoned necropolis. Resurrected thanks to one drop of water, you will go to the expedition to open the ancient sea, buried underground and sandy dunes. This is your task and the main goal of the game. After an arid, but still beautiful country, you move on your magical dream, which plays the role of snowboarding, skateboard and surf in one. With his magic, you can also purify the Earth and detect the hidden remnants of the culture. Soon you will find that this hidden world can really affect you after awakening.

After an arid, but still beautiful country, you move on your magical dream, which plays the role of snowboarding, skateboard and surf in one.

I must say that at the beginning I was intrigued, how smooth the movement was. When you first go to the adventure, this is a really pleasant feeling. At the same time, control is very intuitive, and after a few seconds you feel as if you played for several hours. Since this control really matters, I am glad that it was done so well. I had no problems to get into some smaller platforms or narrow ways that would ruin the pleasure of the game. And the last, but no less important, the character also reacts very well to your instructions. If for some reason you need to stop or turn sharply, it will immediately listen to you and do it the way you imagine. All this contributes to smooth experience without disappointment.

You can reach really high speeds on your sword, and you can also start with various tricks. At first you cannot do a lot, but you will learn more about the game. Either automatically in history, or with a special seller in exchange for the collected currency. However, this is not a necessity, and the game does not push you. However, do not expect the greater depth of this “tricks” of mechanics. In the end, the game is not concentrated, and this is actually just a bonus that you can use. If you still want any side activities related to one, you can find special arenas. In them you must collect an account at some time using tricks. Again, do not expect that something extremely compresses the buttons of your controller.

However, do not expect the greater depth of this “tricks” of mechanics.

Although this is primarily a linear game, which even sometimes a little, if you are accidentally lost, it also offers enough freedom in fairly large areas. In each area, you need to solve puzzles to continue. They are not too complicated. On the contrary, I would say that they are quite simple. But, as in the case of tricks, this game is not primarily oriented on complex puzzles. Of course, you will like this if you are looking for a purely relaxed experience without the need for great thinking.

But if you do not want to rush into the game that I do not recommend yourself, you can find more side puzzles. Solving them, you will receive bonuses in the form of a special currency for traders. The reward is not only that, but you will also see more than this beautiful world, and perhaps you will find stones that will more carefully represent the background of history. Nevertheless, there are only a few fleeting ones, which may be a pity, and the creators can more concentrate on this area. Nevertheless, you will still understand what it is from Cutspene Esight, because the story here is quite simple.

Great visual, even better soundtrack

Of course, the greatest fun and driver of the game is the admiration of the world that you begin to open and liberate. From a desert map without a life, which still has its own charm, after a while you create a color environment full of various types of marine animals, turtles, to dolphins or whales. The movements of the animals are again magnificent, and you really feel that they swim in the depths of the sea, despite the fact that he actually swims in the air around you. In addition, other ways or opportunities to get to where you could not just get there. It can be a jellyfish, after which you jump as after trampolines, or even various accelerators and even ride on the back of some animals. At some points, this really attracts to stop and watch the outside world.

I was constantly fascinated by how this soundtrack could cause a complete carousel of emotions.

Nevertheless, the visual aspect of the game is not the only thing to admire. The sea is to offer no less special experience from the point of view of the soundtrack, which will complement this beautiful world and may improve. As in the previous names that I mentioned in the introduction, the music was written by Austin, a spy. During me, I was constantly fascinated by the fact that this soundtrack could cause a complete carousel of emotions in itself. Of course, I mean, of course, only in the best sense. At some point, you enjoy cheerful, adventure music during surfing on emerald waters, suddenly the music will turn into a melancholic, as well as your mood, and if you come across some danger, the music becomes very fast, even dark. And all these transitions are formed very natural and not forced.

Short but pleasant

I finished the game in less than 4 hours, and thanks to the study and accompanying secondary puzzles. At a price of almost 30 €, it may seem quite a lot of content. On the one hand, I would like the game to be at least a little longer, on the other hand, I was probably pleased with the length. I think that in a moment the game can be quite repeated and less fun. However, having completed the story, you will open the possibility of a new game +.

There, of course, you will already receive improvements, and you will receive a little automatically for decoration. For example, a speed meter that you can also turn off. If you reach hunters, you can squeeze a little more time. The game offers a total of 48 of them. At the same time, I can imagine that after a while I will return to the game and I want to enjoy this amazing experience again.

Technically, I personally accepted me very smoothly all the time, with the exception of one place. It was a faster part in which more things occurred at the same time, and in it I registered in places a really noticeable drop in images. It took me a few minutes to go through this part, because I wanted to look for the environment correctly, so I was a little sorry. Fortunately, after he left this place, nothing of the kind was repeated.
