Story-wise, it feels like ABZU 2.0 - with surfing.
It is short (if you're not interested in multiple playthroughs)

A few additional ramps could have been added (or a dedicated mode).

Surfing feels simultaneously thrilling and relaxing

An evocative story that is self-contained but also bridges together other Giant Squid games

Visuals and music so rich it?s impossible not to get swept up in the moment

The feeling of whizzing around on the sword is magnificent

An audiovisual show from start to finish. It's a real treat with a masterful soundtrack.
The sensations it conveys and the feeling of progress as we move forward.

We could have done something more with the ornaments we make with our sword/board.

Riding the hover sword feels smooth and exciting, letting you surf across sand dunes, rails, and massive landscapes.
The art direction is stunning, with deserts, snowy peaks, and floating islands all looking unique and memorable.
Austin Wintory?s soundtrack carries the game emotionally, perfectly matching the calm, meditative style of exploration.
Watching aquatic life return as you progress feels magical and adds so much life to the world.
The simple, accessible design makes it easy to relax and enjoy without ever feeling too punishing.

The story feels vague and unfinished, never building the emotional weight the studio?s past games managed to achieve.
Unlocking new tricks doesn?t change much?progression feels cosmetic instead of adding real depth to gameplay.
With no combat and light puzzles, the core loop starts to feel repetitive after a few hours.
Frame drops and performance hiccups can break immersion, even when playing on solid hardware.
Once the thrill of surfing wears off, there isn?t enough variety to keep you coming back.

Strong pacing and environmental design

Strong pacing and environmental design
Painfully short runtime - feels like it's over just when it's kicking off
Several loose ends remain with the narrative, which doesn't endear as much as Giant Squid's past games
The best parts of the platforming come together in the late game
Trick system feels mostly superfluous
Hefty performance drops in some areas
