Master Key Reviews
Master Key is a sublime 2D RPG that's a perfect follow-up to Animal Well
undefined.Overall, Master Key finds solid ground to share with other notable indie Zelda-like games, feeling very much like a minimalist version of Tunic. The countless secrets of its world and the way in which it encourages you to search and reflect on every screen give it a remarkable sense of vitality. I know I haven't seen all that its dense map has to offer, but I've still thoroughly enjoyed my time with Master Key and look forward to eventually diving back in to find what I missed.
Master Key gives us the key but makes sure to hide the lock from the start. The feeling of full freedom in a graphically simple world may be nerve-racking for some people but it can also be very rich and rewarding for those willing to face the challenge. It's up to you to decide if it's worth it to look for the door and go on this adventure.

Even with some limitations, Master Key stands out by combining simplicity and retro aesthetics in a challenging and pleasant adventure. In order not to guide us, some moments can be frustrating and confusing but it's balanced out by the fun of finding out the world's secrets. Overall, the experience is positive and worth experimenting, especially for those [feeling] nostalgic for old games.
