First of all: the trailer is amazing! - It points out the game mechanics and what you can expect by making it look entertaining and pointing out the goofy fun of it.

The game is good! - but it takes you a long time until you see it shine. It's like a gem with a few scratches.

Sadly, I found myself disappointed by how boring the gameplay was at the beginning. I continued playing tho and was surprised positively.
Right after entering the second map region the game changed my mind and I was engaged! I started enjoying playing it.

The extras, like mini-games and camp changing after special missions, are lovely. There is so much to do!
I like that we can customize our character(s) as well - not much, but it's still lovely to have.
The fundamental gameplay stays the same throughout the worlds, but the riddles get more interactive and the mini-games are challenging, because the controls are tricky to get used to.

For some reason I was expecting some engaging interactivity instead of having animations only - after hours I don't mind anymore - and was delighted to actually see more interactive sections later.

The controls are easy to use, but hard to master - perhaps it's linked to the sensitivity which cannot be changed in the settings.

The most annoying music track in the beginning is the one featured in the trailer. This melody is literally chasing after your sanity throughout side quests, challenges and the first region. It drove me insane and I turned down the music. I did enjoy the calmer, funky boss tracks and creations for the other regions.

Not a bad game, not the best either, but enjoyable. It's a lovely game when you like the concept (see trailer).

Unrelated: It reminds me of a mobile game titled "Knighthood - RPG Knight". I assume it's the goofiness of the style. (Both games have a few things in common, but are very, very different)

A cute and whimsical adventure where you control the sword instead of your character. The story is minimal and bland, the low difficulty and slow pace makes it boring to play and whilst the game has an exuberance of cuteness, that only goes so far. The graphics are appealing with a light and bright cartoony setting and working your way through all the levels and collecting all the content offers some value, but it lacks fun and funny humour and the soundtrack is very samey. The optional challenges and side quests are far better than the linear campaign as they offer more challenge and variety, but there’s little reason to repeat them or the mini-games. The control scheme gimmick is used to some effect but more could have been done with it, such as having to slash switches or enemies from the correct angle or having to use your sword to collect items. Similarly, having timers on the flames/bombs, the sword growing/shrinking consistently and making the large UI only appear when needed would have made it better.

♥♥♥ una premisa interesante este juego te da algunas horas de sana diversión. Los niveles están bien diseñados y termina antes de que se vuelvan repetitivos. La jugabilidad se siente casi como si movieras un carrito de súpermercado ♥♥♥ punta filosa, y el girar sobre tu propio eje da gustito. Tiene pocas reviews, espero que más gente se interese en jugarlo porque es una pequeña maravilla.
