The magic of this game really relies on its gamplay really, not the strength of its story. Maybe I should have mentioned spoilers? Nah not when you can get it in the write up on Steam anyway. In fact I’ve pretty much just covered the whole game for you. You’re not going to get a whole lot of story-telling out of this. This is no end of the world saving quest or anything, just a jaunt that goes horribly wrong to retrieve a wrongfully stolen melon. Who took it? The main villain of the game is named Farta. So she decides to leave her house to go looking for the delicious melon and get it back. Eryi is a fairy and one day she went to go eat the melon she’d been saving but found that it had been stolen. The game itself has a very simple premise through its twelve levels. Eryi’s Action is challenging to be sure, not as long as most platformers, but it presents in such a way that it’s quickly become one of my favorite platformers and easily the best one I’ve played this year and maybe even one of my favorites of all time. And on top of all of this, it never seems to get frustrating, and instead you find yourself going in to keep playing and enjoying trying to navigate a level without getting killed every time on the same trap just because you haven’t quite figured out the way around yet. And that’s when the rug gets pulled out from under you and you realize the cute suckered you into a trap, a deliciously fun trap where the goal isn’t to get through without dying, but is to get through a level while navigating the traps and puzzles you’d be used to in other platformers laid out for you in a way that makes you rethink how you’re approaching the entire game. 2 or 3 with a far simpler goal of trying to retrieve something that was stolen from you. In this regards it’s like a more charming version of Super Mario Bros. Very cute actually in the best ways possible. It looked like a cute platformer that I’d have some time to blow through and get some enjoyment out of in the process.
I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I first got a look at Eryi’s Action.
