It's utterly heartbreaking what a waste of potential this was. They could've grown so much over the first game but instead this just feels like a complete rehash from top to bottom

The game is just so much fun, the concept is very well thought and exploring the islands is definitely a joy. I loved the story throughout and just didn't want to put the game down until I was done with it around 20 hours of playtime later. Definitely my game of the year and it's not close, I haven't they much pure joy from a game in years.

If I had to use one word to describe Baldo it would be CHARM. This game is an absolute joy to play and you can clearly feel the passion the developers put in each and every corner of the world they created. It has some quirks and definitely doesn't hold your hand (some of the puzzles are TOUGH), but it's never unfair and the solution comes to you if you think and experiment enough. It has plenty of content, with a main quest that can last up to 50 hours and a lot of side content in the form of mini dungeons with puzzle challenges and side quests. But the real star of this game are the main dungeons, which are all huge and very clever, with puzzles that interact with each other and really make you think in order to progress. I definitely recommend this to any player that likes old school Zelda or puzzle/adventure games in general. And again, I can't stress enough how good this game looks in motion, it's ridiculous. It has a style that's inspired by studio Ghibli and it shows, all the environments are really detailed (the house interiors are incredible, with little details that add a bit of environmental storytelling and help flesh out the NPCs) and the characters are quirky and unique. And the music... God, the music! It's all around fantastic with tunes that will stick in your head while you're not playing and don't be surprised if you start humming some of the songs. And the best part: it's also pretty cheap, $24,99 for more than 50 hours of playtime is a STEAL. Go buy it now, you definitely won't regret it.

Very contemplative and deliberate with its storytelling, a must play for anyone who enjoys a good story.

I can't fathom the fact that nintendo got away with selling this for more than a triple A game.

The game is incredible and deserves all the praise it was given. Phenomenal story, amazing graphics and art style and all around great characters. Atlus really overdid themselves.
