Mika and The Witch's Mountain

Honestly, I hate this game, and will never buy another game from Chibig. I have played so many of their games and had such high hopes. Instead, they gave us this trash. The bugs I can forgive. I, in fact, find them kinda charming. It's the runtime of the game that makes me hate it. My playtime says 4.6 hours, but really it's more like 3.5 if you factor the time I got up to make food, feed the dogs, go to the bathroom, etc. I finished it SO fast because there is absolutely nothing to this game to give it the depth I expected from this studio. I tried to return it, but Steam said no because I'd played more than 3 hours. Look, I get that I did that, but even using the raw 4.6hr metric that's $20 for a game with ZERO replay value finished in an afternoon. Feelsbadman. Feels reeeeeeeeeal bad.

This game is really good. Though I can understand the mixed reviews. The Pros: Gameplay - The platforming and flying mechanics are peak. I see a lot of complaints about bugs but I must've played after they got patched because I experienced none. They do a great job of slowly introducing you to more and more of the island and there are plenty to do. The main game play of flying around trying not to break your packages are very fun, but that gameplay is surprisingly short lived. Exploration - After the main story there are still plenty to do - Various delivery jobs that weren't apart of the main quest. - Various collectibles such as red and blue statues to can be traded for different outfits - 3 entire Zelda-like dungeons that have their own gameplay mechanics not found during the main story. The Con: Story - The story is quite frankly too short and is paced very, very fast. There is virtually no build up to any of the big story events that happen. Your hired for 1 and a half days ...

harry potter can fly better than this

Somewhat short, but very sweet. A celshaded (windwaker) art style and a simple "fetch quest" design, but the areas are nice and the quests aren't annoying. The characters are generally good fun an the stress level is really low. Theres a good bunch of optional stuff to find if you want to, but if you don't, there is no punishment for it either. If I have a complaints, its a technical one: The music "zones" don't seem to be mapped too well. I you fly above a zone or through them too fast, it quite often seems to revert to silence. I think it'd sound better if it continued the last track until a new one took over.

In love with this game. It's very WindWaker-esque which is fantastic. I only wish it was longer. I hope they make more of these games! <3

A cute, chill, and short game. :)

Absolutely amazing game!!! I would personally describe it as a mix of Kiki’s Delivery Service + The Legend of Zelda, it had elements that reminded me of both, and that was a perfect gaming experience for me. I loved finding all the collectibles and then finding out there was even more collectibles, it was so so so so much fun and im sad I’ve finished the game but also loved finishing everything 100%

amazing game, loved every minute of it. played on steam deck and really ejoyed the experience ;)

probably worth the price. you can reach the credits in about 4-6 hours. game isn't complete at that point though, there is still more to do after the credits. was nice, kinda wish there was some RNG to it but it is good as it is,

Great game with studio Ghibli art like aspect. Inspired by Kiki's delivery service. The music is heartwarming.
