Aaru’s Awakening Review | Twinfinite

I’ve played a lot of puzzle games in my day, and a lot of action platformers. Finding games that straddle these two, however, can be more difficult. Aaru’s Awakening is one of the rare breed that truly takes both of the concepts and dials them in with precision, creating a fast-paced, fluid experience that requires equal parts problem solving and split-second reaction. With a gorgeously detailed hand-drawn world and a story of epic proportions, this ambitious title brings a lot to the table. When it’s all put together, though, does it create compelling play, or a frustrating experience?
