Unfortunately, even though it does have quite a healthy amount of side quests I found myself lacking in any sort of motivation to complete them due to how unrewarding they are. Every game comes with side quests and Ary and the Secret of Seasons also choose to have some. The only way to get coins is from chest looting. But this is cosmetic only, except for skill upgrading might have a little help with battles.

Also, Ary can get to buy some equipment like weapons, clothes, wigs, masks and etc. The graphics of the game is perfectly serviceable but I was particularly impressed with how the development team put their best effort into ensuring each region had a different season and even during casting powers the area would change accordingly.Īry is able to earn gold from hidden chests which will be used for combat upgrades such as agility of combat, attacking power, health regeneration and etc. Ary will then get a key item from the loot box which helps in continuing the journey. Other than delivering the ball, Ary will need to climb up and down with using the power of a season to proceed to a “Key Room” to unlock the door to meet the boss.

Most of the time Ary will need to use the special skill to cast a power of the season in order to carry the ball to solve the puzzle. For the puzzle-solving, mainly Ary needs to deliver a “magical” ball from point A to point B to unlock a door to proceed to the next puzzle. By incorporating the power of the seasons, Ary is able to use it to her advantage in solving those puzzles to unlocking ruins. If this is not an action game, then what game is it?Įven if it doesn’t really scratch the action game itch, the Ary is thankfully a better puzzle-solving game. Even with Flynn’s sword which is acquired from the starting of the game is sufficient for the player to complete the final boss battle as the game puts more focus on elements of the season playing a key role to defeat bosses to collect the cores. Thirdly, weapons don’t have any tangible effect on the attacking power so players will need to gain attacking power by upgrading the skill. Secondly, there won’t be any game over in this game, the player is able to respawn around the place where your last death is so it quickly feels unnecessary to maintain your HP bar. First of all, there is no leveling or weapon upgrading system in the game, and there is no loot or drops from killing the enemies too. The impact of fighting the enemies quickly lose their significance once the player realizes that there are basically no meaningful systems or consequences to being incapacitated. As I played through the game, I realized that the items collected along the journey are pretty useless or redundant which doesn’t have any in the game. Ary is able to take them on with simple sword fighting combat, where parries and dodges are part of the mechanism.

As the newly appointed Guardian of Winter, Ary will learn to manipulate the seasons to help her defeat enemies, overcome obstacles, and solve complex puzzles on her quest to restore balance to her home.ĭuring her journey, Ary will encounter enemies that are trying to stop her from advancing.
