“Reminiscent of the gameboy era Zelda games, definitely on purpose, with that Bloodborne flavoring. Doesn't overstay its welcome, boss fights got better as the game progressed, encouraging (but not necessarily requiring) newly found gadget…”Recommended · Steam review · Feb 2026 · 10 h played · Report / request removal

“Tearscape basically just a retro Darksoul with Zelda 1 artstyle, you explore locations zone and defeat boss in each area similar to dungeon, there is some puzzle element but its there environmental clues that give hint on how to solve it…”Recommended · Steam review · Feb 2026 · 11 h played · Report / request removal

“Bloodborne reimagined in the style of Link's Awakening. Fun, but unimaginative. It's the usual Zelda-like loop of exploring and finding tools that allow you to explore farther, all while trying not to get killed by monsters. For something…”Recommended · Steam review · May 2026 · 12 h played · Report / request removal

“Pretty good so far. Only problem is that you still activate dialogue even when you aren't facing the NPC, so when you are trying to dash away, you often activate the dialogue and have to keep pressing through it. Other than that, it offers…”Recommended · Steam review · Feb 2026 · 3 h played · Report / request removal

“You expect some sort of zelda like game, but in ways it's not. Yes you have an outworld and dungeons, and upgrades, but that's all it has in common. In short it's really one big map, where you kill enemies that gives you tears that you use…”Recommended · Steam review · Feb 2026 · 15 h played · Report / request removal

“It was a good game. Short and sweet but just what I expected, BloodBorne with the gbc Zelda. Wished it was longer, and had a lot more weapons & tools . token system and stats could use some work, felt like only a few were worth your time…”Recommended · Steam review · Mar 2026 · 18 h played · Report / request removal

“(Slight spoilers) This is a really solid game that manages to accomplish and sometimes overdeliver on what it sets out to do. The game takes large inspiration from the Gameboy Color, and as such mostly plays as a time accurate GBC game…”Recommended · Steam review · Jul 2026 · 12 h played · Report / request removal

“Love the Gameboy Color graphics and how the whole soulsborne-like playstyle has been adapted so well. Combat is fun and engaging with great weapon and gun variation. Dodging mechanics are tight and responsive. Even the enemy design and…”Recommended · Steam review · Feb 2026 · 6 h played · Report / request removal
