This game came out of nowhere for me as I found it randomly while listening to various OSTs on Youtube. Ender Lilies artfully weaves the Metroidvanias and Soulslikes inviting the player to fully explore all of the secrets (and endings) of Land’s End. The game provides a variety of abilities allowing for many different playstyles while the fights are fun and challenging without being merciless. After getting 100% completion I can happily say it was a pure joy to play.

Pros

+ Huge map with visually distinct biomes
+ Challenging levels and gameplay
+ Exceptionally great soundtrack
+ Gorgeous design and graphics
+ Simple, but charming story
+ Outstanding atmosphere

- Contact damage
- Unpolished, scattered story presentation

One of my favourite games without a doubt.
10/10 Highly recommended.
