“beautiful, beautiful game that doesn't overstay its welcome.”
“Absolutely loved this! Like any good Metroidvania I couldn’t stop playing. Gorgeous pixel art and the boss fights were fun and challenging. I always wanted to watch the anime but never got to it but I’m watching it now…”

“Not too much, not too little. Just the right amount of fun out of the time you get out of it. Buy it. Play it. Love it. Watch the 1990 anime for some OG experience, then watch the 1998 anime for an earworm that'll last…”
“beautiful, beautiful game that doesn't overstay its welcome.”
“Excellent metroidvania style game here. Short but sweet, it's only about 4-6 hours long. The difficulty is pretty good, you can die quickly but if you learn the enemy patterns you can easily beat some of the harder…”

“Wow...I just played for about 50 minutes and it was incredible....much closer to SOTN than the games that are more sidescrolling souls-likes with Metroidvania elements. I like those too but this..some of it is even more…”
“Full of fresh spins on the mechanics of metroidvanias even now, and refreshingly much more fast-paced with a lot of effort to minimize backtracking and grinding. Not as balanced or expansive as Hollow Knight, but tends…”
“A love letter to Symphony of the Night. Made me quite intrigued about the setting of Record of Lodoss War and will probably get into the OVAs soon. If you like Metroidvanias just buy it, it's cheap and it's worth it…”

“Didn't get lost. Poked every enemy in sight. Only two elements. Had no idea what's going on with the story whatsoever. Puzzles with the cogwheels/elevators makes you want to impale yourself on the spinning blades. The…”
“Yes I am an elf gooner how can you tell. Major spoiler alert: It's a story that already ended long ago, no new thing can be added because it's already at the end cover of the book no more paper to write. All you can do…”
“The game feels great. Moving around and jumping is just right. There are a lot of different weapons to find and use. The game is based on an anime from 1990 called Record of Lodoss War. I haven’t seen it so the story…”

“Very enjoyable game, although I don't know if I'd say it has enough content to be worth $20. It has some lovely aesthetics and Deedlit is very fun to control, especially at the end. The game has an element system, where…”
“Fun and good looking game. Some of the dialogue is cliche and I beat it in about 7.5 hours at 97% map completion which seems kind of short to me but I got it on sale for under $10 so feel it was worth it at that price.…”
“도트 그래픽은 굿 모션도 부드러움 조작감도 굿 불이랑 바람 기믹 괜찮은 시도였음 근데 너무 짧음, 보스도 적은데 그마저도 우려먹거나 특별하지 않음 난이도도 쉬움 그러다보니까 플탐이.... 50퍼 세일해도 추천하기 힘들듯...”

“Nice fantasy Metroidvania platformer obviously inspired by the classic Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, but not as good or rich in content. Then again, it might be nostalgia misleading me. Not familiar at all with the Record of Lodoss War fiction, but I was intrigued by the…”
— a player, Steam review · 10 hrs played“A beautiful short adventure, the gameplay is simple yet very rewarding and satisfying. Enemies are varied and somewhat challenging. The levels are very straightfoward and linear; despite being a metroidvania, very little backtracking is required.”
— a player, Steam review · 20 hrs played“Magnificent. Wonderful metroidvania. I'm a brat and still think SotN is the best entry into the Castlevania series, and this scratched that SotN itch perfectly. Wonderful entry into Record of Lodoss, wonderful story telling, wonderful gameplay.”
