There are still some graphical glitches, but they aren’t nearly as bad as what they were. When I started reviewing this, (before the aforementioned patch) I ran into a lot of framerate issues and a lot of graphical glitches. With that said, I really liked Ary and the Secret of Seasons’ gameplay, especially after the most recent patch. They have levels built around them, but you have to spend a bit of time getting to understand them, not really knowing what you can do with them right away. However, Summer, Autumn, and Spring don’t have the same sort of tutorials. Granted, the Winter power is obvious because it is somewhat a part of your beginning tutorial. One major sticking point I had with Ary and the Secret of Seasons is that you don’t get a tutorial on the specifics of how each seasonal mechanic works. You also have access to the power to manipulate the seasons, though some of those abilities come to you over time. You traverse Ary’s world, using her sword (and slingshot) to fight enemies. However, it is something to be aware of if you’re considering picking up the Switch version.Īry and the Secret of Seasons is an action-platformer in every sense of the word.
#Ary and the secret of seasons review update
This isn’t new most games update their PC version first before moving on to console versions. Ary and the Secret of Seasons still has some bugs that I think should be noted if you’re going to buy the game.Īdditionally, if you’re going to purchase this game on Nintendo Switch, you should know that updates are a week or two behind the PC version. I think this is a fantastic thing, but they are not done by any means. The developers have been hard at work on updating Ary and the Secret of Seasons to iron out bugs and rebalance some mechanics. Now, before I go into further detail about Ary’s gameplay, I should mention something important. Ary must do what she can to restore balance to the seasons and stop a plot from unfolding and ending life as she knows it.
At the same time, the seasons begin to be thrown into chaos. Ary uncovers evidence on the contrary and though Flynn was meant to be the next Guardian, she takes it upon herself to do his job in his place.
