A Most Extraordinary Gnome

Don't let the cute graphics fool you, this game is actually quite challenging! Mixing beautiful arts-and-craft graphics with cuphead style gameplay creates this wonderful little indie game. Highly recommended if you like throwing yourself at a boss 100 times and then calming down by talking to animals!

Amazing art style + fun challenging gameplay + loads of great characters

Quick Score: 4/5 Notes: Really cool cuphead'esque mini boss rush game with a cool aesthetic and overall vibe/setting. The controller support is slightly scuffed and completely bugs out on the 3rd boss for some reason so I would just suggest using Mouse+Keyboard. There are only 4 "bosses" and the base game can be cleared by most people in probably 60-90 minutes. There are some additional post-game achievements/modes you can try out as well which offer a modest challenge and should extend your playtime a bit.

Great artwork. Custom difficulty options. Replayable for achievements. The story is a bit of a fever dream & I wish some mechanics were explained a bit better. Overall I really enjoyed it & it is priced fairly.

+The art style and animations are very charming and unique, definitely one of my main highlights of the game. - I personally didn't love the story, it feels quite unique, which is a positive, but it didn't get me to care for the main character so the ending didn't strike me as hard as it should have. - The controller support is a bit buggy as well, the 3rd boss second part was a lot harder because of it (I just ended up aiming down and timing my shots since that seemed to not bug out as often). - The music from the trailer sounded a little strange but interesting, and it seemed to fit the unique artstyle, however I didn't feel I enjoyed several of the transitions in-game and some of the creative choices. + The mechanics are very interesting and the other main selling point of the game in my opinion, also a nice variety of bosses with different challenges. Overall the game is quite innovative, so it's a nice game to get in a bundle or at a discount, but I wouldn't get it at full pr...

adorable game!! the artstyle, music and characters are so charming, and his house is so cute, i loved revisiting it to find something new each time. also i love how customizable the difficulty is!

I tried to hurry through Otho's speech :( Such a beautiful game, and the boss fights are interesting. I love throwing my hat about trying new combinations.

As already mentioned by some people, the unique and friendly paper cut-out artstyle with the cute animals doesn't really match with the (also a bit clunky) boss battles which could at least have been enhanced by some easygoing gameplay sprinkled in between. It's a bit of a shame because that surely throws off a lot of casual players who likely expect a totally different type of game.
