Unique and Fantastic

First off it’s fantastic to have more games like these finally coming to the mobile platform - it shows that developers, especially indies, are acknowledging the small but active niche market of hardcore gamers on mobile, and are providing them with polished, well-ported games like Dandara that you should definitely support if you consider yourself a member of this niche - Dandara is expensive for an app at $22, but well worth it, especially if you can get it on sale!

Secondly, positives of the game itself - I played with a gamepad, however the game also feels right at home with touch controls, arguably handling even better than with a controller, and the game is great fun, the graphics and soundtrack are gorgeous, the exploration is intriguing, and solving problems and beating bosses provided me with some intensely satisfying moments, with somewhere around 10 hours of gameplay (depending on how good you are) not including exploring to find all the chests/hidden areas

Lastly then, some negatives - the game isn’t easy. It’s not Cuphead levels of rage inducing, but does require precise movements and a good deal of concentration especially in the latter stages and boss fights, also, sometimes exploration can be confined to one correct path out of several available options, resulting in a large amount of backtracking, compounded by the sparsity of checkpoint camps, although this is somewhat mitigated by the joy of navigating the environment using Dandara’s unique gravity mechanic

Overall, it’s not cheap, but when compared to its price on other platforms and the amount of work that’s obviously gone into making and porting it, Dandara is a unique and fantastic experience well worth the money - well done Raw Fury!
