Our Review
A puzzle-box metroidvania: hatch from a flower and descend a dense, interconnected 2D labyrinth. You do not fight — you combine multi-use tools and notice things (a hole in a wall, a picture in the background) to solve it. Past the ending lies a layer of secrets only a community can crack, made largely by one person, Billy Basso.
