Great Throwback, Just Challenging

Pipistrello feels and looks like a Gameboy Advance game. The controls are more refined of course, but you get some of that magic you used to find in older games. If I had to pick something to compare to, it would be Zelda: Minish Cap, but much harder.

The story is great. You play as the nephew of a mega corporations leader, who is attacked and turned into a yoyo. To save your aunt, you need to get all 4 mega batteries back from the bad guys. This means traveling to unique regions of the town and fighting through dungeons. On your journey you start to feel like the bad guys aren't all that bad as you learn how your aunt's business destroyed their livelihoods.

The gameplay is good as well, but can be difficult. You fight with a yoyo, which feels close to swinging a sword, but not really. You will die in combat a lot, and I think its intentional with the way money is set up. You earn money all the time and when you die you pay a fee and respawn. While traveling the world, you will find badges, similar to Paper Mario which will enhance various abilities and actions. You can also pay to upgrade those badges. You also have a skill tree which you have to pay your cousin to unlock, but he doesn't like "used" money so he will nerf you until you pay him with fresh coins.

The puzzles are interesting and some are just incredibly difficult. I don't expect a young kid to pick this up and beat it. Sometimes they are difficult due to timing and button presses, and others they are too confusing as they did not fill you in properly on your abilities. Some moves you can pull off and you don't even know it until you accidently do it. Its a bit of a pain but you can also look it up if really stuck.

Overall fun game but not for the faint of heart.
