RIN: The Last Child has potential and elements that should make it stand out more, but also too much is holding it back. It’s not a terrible game at all, just an ok game. Players looking for a not-too-challenging game to relax and unwind with will find it here, but fans of Metroidvania-style games will likely lose interest after the first boss fight, and there are many better alternatives out there.

I generally try not to be too harsh on indie developers, because they often make the most unique games. 'RIN: The Last Child', on the other hand, is simply not a good game. The idea of ​​the spells is fun initially, but everything surrounding it just doesn't work and only causes frustration. The floaty gameplay can be fixed to some extent with a few patches, but that map is going to be a lot harder.
