Why play it

immerse yourself in a gorgeous hand-painted world on a search for your true identity. As the mysterious warrior, Dust, your action-packed journey will take you from peaceful glades to snowy mountaintops and beyond.

Battle dozens of enemies at once with an easy-to-learn, difficult-to-master combat system, take on a variety of quests from friendly villagers, discover ancient secrets and powerful upgrades hidden throughout the massive, open world, and uncover the story of an ancient civilization on the brink of extinction as you fight to uncover your own past.

Dust: An Elysian Tail is an action and exploration game as cool as it was six years ago. Those who have played it before will find no interest in this new version for Switch. New players will find a great little independent gem that I highly recommend if you are attracted to the genre. The lack of extras and some minor performance issues are its only drawbacks that are not enough to not recommend this game.

After reading this review, Dust: An Elysian Tail will not seem to be innovative or part of a special breed. And it’s true, there’s no real innovation to speak of. The game uses tried and tested mechanics and concepts in a very successful way.
