It features a number of different areas, many of which can be tackled in any order chosen by the player. Reverie Under the Moonlight covers the basics in game layout design, but makes several mistakes that keep it from being exceptional. This is especially disappointing as the combat mechanics themselves are excellent despite the failure to design encounters that highlight that fact.Įxploration can make or break a Metroidvania. And while making mistakes in combat can be punishing, the combination of an overabundance of healing items, high damage player abilities, and simple, uninteresting boss patterns, make most bosses button mash fests with a handful of rolls thrown in for good measure. Each of these is obtainable only during a single fleeting opportunity that is both very obscure and very tedious. While in theory there is a good amount of variety to combat, in practice most interesting abilities can be permanently missed. These ideas are great on paper but the their execution falls short.

What exists is very effective, and adeptly creates a sense of mystery about the events that take place. In addition to the lore, the story features a few powerful moments, and the game’s true ending is surprisingly satisfying.
