Completely fair statement and it's not bad in anyway. Tunic is basically a throwback of LoZ. But I will say that this game is much more difficult than LoZ was for sure.

Much like LoZ, character and weapon progression plays a huge role in order for you to solve puzzles that you come across. You can't complete a certain puzzle or get to a certain area until you have a specific weapon / item.

The one thing I think what most people will dislike is the lack of transparency. What I mean is that the game doesn't tell you ANYTHING. NOTHING. It tosses you into the game and you have to discover everything on your own. You will find that this is done on purpose by the creators. You have to find missing manual pages scattered throughout the game to learn about the lore. I, personally, was kind of turned off by It in the beginning because I just feel like I'm running around doing all these things and still don't know jack about what the hell is going on! laugh out loud

BUT as you gather more pages of the manual throughout the game, you start learning about the lore little by little and I think by the end of the game you really appreciate the ingenuity of the creators trying to approach the game from a different angle.

All in all, It's a solid game, but I wouldn't recommend paying anything more than $15 or even $20. I managed to pick it up during a sale and combined it with a code for $15. The reason is this is a one and done game. Once you beat it, you probably won't ever come back to it again.

Temu Zelda? Why are you throwing shade at this game? Have you even played it?

In terms of puzzle solving, this game is up there with LoZ.

In terms of difficulty, it blows LoZ out of the water. Enemies in this game are actually aggressive.

You should try playing before commenting. You sound like a damn fool.

Definitely takes inspiration from Zelda so that's fair but this game is so much more. I absolutely CAN NOT agree with the commentor that said it isnt worth more than $20.

I played it for free on XB Gamepass and if I knew then what I do know, I would've bought it day 1 for $60. This game is overall harder than Zelda games so if that's a turn off then I completely understand but it's also more satisfying.

The main thing about this game that I love is the discovery. You'll find shortcuts around the maps and get caught off guard with how you didn't know they were right there. Then finding the pages of the game manual is so interesting. You'll find out things you didn't understand and help solve puzzles you wouldn't have need able to otherwise.

So the one aspect I will agree on with that commentor is that you may not necessarily replay it. Once you've discovered all the Easter eggs and how to solve the puzzles, a 2nd replay won't have the same experience since you can't replicate the amazing, "a-ha!" moments. But honestly can't that be said of any Zelda game once you complete a dungeon?

This game is absolutely worth more than $20 and I'm going to happily buy this physical copy because it is amazing.

If you grew up on the NES watching your dad play Zelda, trying to make sense of cryptic messages with nothing but a beat up instruction booklet, then this game WILL hit differently. Go for all the endings, it's worth it.

Thinking back to every video game puzzle I've ever solved and the wall is among the greatest of all time.

I'm pretty sure I've seen this for $15 not too long ago.
That would be for digital version. This is physical with some neat extras in the box that you don't typically see anymore these days.

Reviews say that the Switch port had to soften the look a lot to get it running well, so the other versions have a comparatively crisp, polished look. Works well enough for handheld mode, reviewers said, but docked, it's noticeably more blurry. Sounds mostly aesthetic, aside from a few things being a bit easier to see with the crisper graphics.

Yeah, I never played it docked. It ran exceptionally well in handheld. :shrug:

This is the normal price on Steam for those interested. Which means it'll go cheaper there next time it's on sale.
