This game hits so far above it's weight as a cheap indie title. It's really, really good.
The story isn't a grand fantasy epic, but that's not such a bad thing. It's a lighthearted, but still interesting romp with fascinating characters that will keep you interested for a good 15-20 hours.

The story, the characters, the gameplay and the environment all play off of each other in a way which I find really commendable. Half of the game you will be looking around trying to find treasure, and again this is a good thing because the levels are bright and colourful, the music is good and the treasure you find will all give you tangible strategic options in a fight that makes exploring feel rewarding.

Fights are all interesting too. They always find some way to keep it feeling fresh, maybe they've introduced a new enemy type, there's a new strategy you want to try out, or for story reasons you've got to get to the other side of the map quickly, or a boss fight, and the difficulty is spot on, the game always gives you the right level of challenge and you have a lot of freedom to experiment.

Overall, I really like this game and I'm really impressed at how well everything meshes together.
