I've never played a game pervaded with such artistry and beauty, it certainly delivered. The gameplay was amazing, the time scale to a 100% was rather easy and comfortable (which I liked) and the Studio Ghibli inspired themes (which was the reason I bought the game) was magical. The only downside to Child of Light is the story, I won't say much but I felt it lacked in many places, the feelings that I got from playing games like FFVII/X or DQ8 were far greater because I was thoroughly engaged in their stories, Child of Light was filled with clichés and it lacked originality with similarities from Disney films such as Cinderella (evil step mother) and Sleeping Beauty (main villain turned into a dragon, lead character is named after the Disney princess) and this is the reason why I haven't voted it higher. I definitely recommend it and it was a fantastic gaming experience, but if I'm honest I was expecting more as I was really hyped for this game, It could have been improved.
Child of Light 8/10

Let me start by saying that it takes a lot for me to give a 10/10 rating! Rarely anything surpasses my expectations but by god this did.
I'm still in awe, this game is a masterpiece!
I remembered playing this game on PC years ago and was a little sceptic when I found out a remastered edition was coming out for ps4, I initially decided against playing it because i thought it wouldn't have been like I remembered, and it wasn't, it was much better. The graphics superseded the original by far especially when the game gave you the opportunity to switch to the original rendition of the game, but what really made Grim Fandango so damn good was the fact they didn't change a single thing, I played the whole game with tank controls to get the ultimate feel, I loved the voice acting, the puzzles were smart and engaging and the story was PHENOMENAL! Maybe I liked the fact the 90s neo-noir feel was still intact and undamaged, maybe I fell in love with the nostalgia, nevertheless it was a beautiful game which I will be recommending to everyone.
