The Pathless Review (Aniche)
This game will sweep you off your feet with the visuals, wow you with its sense of speed, and captivate you with its music. I played The Pathless on a large TV and the colours, the beautiful cel-shaded graphics pop like nothing else. You zoom through the world at lightning speed, wind whipping past; you soar through the sky and see the entire map stretch before you, towers rising into the sky and ruined temples obscured by fog.
There are multiple biomes, each rich with their own bright colours and terrain, and interesting puzzles. The game isn't difficult by any means, you can't die or anything, so you're free to enjoy the striking visuals and score without interruption. There's more content in the game than I completed, but it's not required to advance in the game, which i appreciated.
The story is pretty barebones, but it doesn't really need to be anything more than that. It focuses all your attention on the parts that matter: the beautiful sights and sounds, the sense of speed, and wide open map that's free to explore.
