Its exactly what I expected. A rouge-lite boss rush version of Elden Ring. Very pleased so far. Half of the boss roster down. Been queuing with my one friend and playing with an extra random. I don't really have any complaints right now - fun to wind down after work. Excited for duos to release.

More Elden Ring. A little harder but not too hard. A must play.

I can't believe this game exists. Truly game of the decade.

Very cool puzzle game that makes you think about death and what it really means to be a human. COOL.

Number go up.
Brain go off.
Dopamine increase.
Nice.

It's funny how I find the infinite vastness and expansion of space to be calming, but when something wants to chase me in the dark I **** my pants. Amazing DLC. They have a baby mode "Limit Frights" option in the settings now, not sure how it works as I didn't touch it but I saw some comments about the horror stress annoying them.

I've not played many games that itches my brain like Outer Wilds does. This si-fi mystery exploration type game exceeded my expectations! 10/10 MUST BUY.

What I loved about this game:
- The art style is timeless. It will still hold up over a decade from now. Beautiful design for everything in the star system. No complaints what so ever about appearance.
- The music is top notch and builds atmosphere. Certain things you do in the game and certain locations kick on a different track, all of them fitting and pleasant to listen to.
- The story is a real treat. I was lucky enough to have played this game years after its release and not have any spoilers. I was able to go into this game with a fresh set of eyes and mind and wow... I'm so glad I got to experience everything first hand. There's tragedy, happiness, hope, sympathy, shock, discovery, and if you play the DLC Echos of the Eye, HORROR! This game has it all and it nails every aspect.
- Having a breakthrough is highly satisfying. When I was really stuck on one part of the story, struggling to find out what to do next, I managed to think myself into a breakthrough that made me enjoy the game so much more. Each and every time a plot point becomes clear is such a joy and made me remember why I fell in love with games so long ago. We need more games like this out there.
- The DLC Echos of the Eye. This DLC adds a whole new story into the game that still fits into the main plot of the original. I probably spent 10-12 hours on the DLC alone. Well worth the price I paid for it. The story was fantastic and I found the change of pace in exploratory style and horror elements refreshing compared to the base game.

What some people might struggle with:
- Not knowing what to do. If you find yourself stumped on one part of the story and can't figure out how to break through, explore something else entirely! Don't overwork yourself on one aspect of the story, things might just work themselves out with more exploration. I would HIGHLY advise you not to look up any spoilers or guides about the game, because as I mentioned above, the breakthroughs you will have are so satisfying. I've had to move on from a couple stuck points my self along the way and do something else for a bit. There is a very helpful story board in-game that will recount all of the important tidbits about your discoveries, consult this often!

This game's got CHARM. Made me smile a lot. Happy that I stumbled across this.

Some things I liked about the game:
Art style fits well with the music
Lots of love put into story cut scenes (Sound effects & text effects are done exquisitely)
Great humor. Definitely silly but not overly so where it gets cringe.
There is difficult levels for those looking for a challenge.
Beginner friendly mechanics (Super Bar, all notes are one key and more points. This went unused for me most of the game as it was more a hinderance until i needed to cheese late level patterns)

I'm no god-gamer by any means. Some of the later levels in the prequel and bonus levels frustrated me with some of the patterns. Brain no work good sometimes but hey, some people really like that kind of difficulty. I just didn't find it worth my time to keep trying. I'll probably revisit this game for the story and gameplay in a year when I need a good smile.

really cool

I probably had more fun playing this with friends and making fun of the characters than I did enjoying the story. The story isn't bad though, there are some bits that have great writing. Worth buying if you aren't playing alone.
