Trolling pretty hard here. The only thing this game has in common with zelda is slightly similar graphics.

Not yet, Cex giving £18 voucher for PS4 copy so worth a punt I believe.

I'm enjoying playing it right now.
Similar in concept to "The Witness" and with a "joy of wander" like that found in "Journey", the simple "wow, that's lovely" moments I've encountered so far have been very pleasing.
It's not about big action, levelling-up, fast combat or difficult puzzles, but it offers an engaging experience with great visuals and lovely music.
If you liked The Witness and/or Journey, there's a good chance you'll like this and, at a sub-£20 price I'd say it is definitely worth it, if only for a change/break from post-apocalyptic, robot-fuelled mayhem! :-)

I enjoyed it, go into it expecting a Jouney/Abzu like game rather than a puzzle game and I think you will like it more. The art and music are lovely.

Lovely game worth a complete play through. Avoid spoilers at all cost.

I loved this game. Enjoy the exploration and take it slow. Its a wonderful game with a really nice story. A few technical problems on xbox one every now and again. But it didn't dampen my experience. One of my favourite games this year.

A (very) poor man's Zelda:ABOTW pale imitation.
Some mixed reviews. Some very, very positive, some much less so. Good spot however on the physical copy of this game.

Game is nothing like Zelda, nor does it try to be.

Got a 9 from Edge. It's hard to argue with that, imho.
However I think the game has suffered from taking too late to come out, even though it supposedly improved the game, and from not having a distinct enough visual identity from ICO.

Agreed on it's nothing like Zelda: ABOTW. Disagree it's not trying to be. A gulf in class. I'm not dissing it (Rime) as a nice little game, certainly some reviews have been very positive, but, don't expect anything more than a game - whilst enjoyable - is quickly forgotten.

I' buy for this price, but not for the original RRP and I certainly won't be getting it on Switch now - it's above £30...

can anybody comment on the performance on the ps4 pro?
i'm reading the framerate is all over the place, does it have an option to lock to 30fps ?

It is also 17.99 at Sainsbury's for anyone struggling to get to an Argos.

Would have gone for this, but it's still a few quid over my £15 threshold. Not to worry... I'll just nab it come Black Friday.

I never quite understand a CEX voucher comment like this... So I can then use my voucher towards a £50 copy of GTA V.

It's makes sense in case you don't like the game you can get exact (or rather more) amount of voucher back. Anything you can get new which Cex offers about same amount back is good buy as you can judge by heat level here....:smile:

Perhaps, but I believe that the point that SavageDonkey is making is that taking the voucher option locks you into using it for purchases from CeX, which typically are significantly overpriced.

Bit steep for a 5/6 hr platinum, will hold out but heat for cheapest price though

It's a fair amount longer than that if you don't use a guide.

Its not even to be compared to zelda botw, its a totally different game, also going by your user pic i doubt people will take note to your comment.
Personally i prefered this over Zelda but that's because i prefer this type of game, also zelda is more expensive.
