Metroidvania Breakdown

Combat
3.5/5

It has all of the concepts that make for good combat, but it's not tight enough to be ''great'' for veterans, and less experienced players will likely be a little frustrated.

Platforming
3/5

Platforming is pretty basic, with only a few challenges dedicated to it.

Exploration
3.5/5

Finding more incenses - or money to buy incenses -is the primary reward for searching around, but with a few dominant exceptions their effect is minor.

Puzzle
2/5

No real puzzles to speak of

Story
3.5/5

Surprisingly strong even if it uses some very tired tropes

Graphics
4/5

The art direction is fluid and beautiful

Music
3.5/5

Very somber and atmospheric, but not particularly memorable

Replayability
3/5

There's a new game+ with a harder difficulty.
