COG says: I wanted to like this game so much, but the more I played, the more flaws I found, until I eventually realized that Arietta essentially starts on a high, and left me saying “This is it?”.
"From sliding cardboard boxes to exploring roguelike dreams, there were a lot of memorable indies last month and they deserve awards." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Jacob writes: "If you’re looking for a Zelda-lite experience, Arietta of Spirits doesn’t really put a foot wrong. But to be a truly great game, it needs more content. It needs more exploration options, more side quests, more upgrades. You’ll only be getting three or four game hours with this one, and there’s nothing to really bring you back."
KeenGamer: "Get ready to explore a lush island filled with mysteries and intrigue in Arietta of Spirits! Embark on an adventure with new friends from the spirit world as evil forces threaten to upset the delicate natural order. Can you save the world from darkness?"
