While it might feel a little button mashy at first, what with a standard two button attack system, you’ll quickly come across enemy types that require you to be a bit more decisive in how you approach them. There’s also an interesting system at play that keeps you from min-maxing your stats and potentially breaking the game a bit, which isn’t a bad idea and helps to get things fairly balanced.Ĭombat is really one of the major areas where Dust stands out though.

Crafting is actually worthwhile here, as the items you can make are almost always better than what you’ll be able to buy at the point you earn them in the game.Īlong with crafting, Dust has a full blown experience and leveling system, complete with stat points to allocate across different fields. Everything flows so smoothly that this is about as cartoon-like as I’ve seen a 2D game manage to get.ĭust also features a hefty crafting system, with enemies that’ll drop crafting materials on a pretty frequent basis, but the blueprints for items tend to be a little rarer. I’m not necessarily a huge fan of the art style, particularly the voice over bits and character portrait interactions between talking characters, but when the action kicks in and you’re swinging your talking sword against enemies, chaining together massive combos and knocking them into the air for more hits, it’s hard to not be impressed by what you’re seeing. The game looks absolutely gorgeous in motion, with animation that needs to be seen to be believed. It’s a little less Symphony of the Night, and more akin to Order of Ecclesia, in that you’re not exploring one huge map, but will go into smaller maps via an overworld screen.

So what is Dust? It’s essentially a Metroidvania style game, wherein you’ll control a 2D character dubbed Dust, partnered with a creature named Fidget, across a series of stages that involve branching paths, secret passages, and a whole slew of enemies to fight. While I’ve generally enjoyed the games I’ve played in SoA this year, Dust is definitely in a league of its own, and is at least a hell of way to close out the promotion.
Dust: An Elysian Tail is certainly an experience worth sharing with others, and marks what could arguably be called the only must-have title in this year’s Summer of Arcade line-up.
