It looked just like the type of game I enjoyed so much during childhood. But since I don't own an iOS device I never was able to play it - until now.
   Certainly, it's not a perfect game (There's always room for improvement, isn't it?), but I definitely got what I expected: a lovely crafted, fun game that brings back the good times of my childhood I spent with Link, Ark from Terranigma, Maxim from Lufia and many more.… Expand

I love the colorful graphics and beautiful music. Enemies are a bit easy, but I think it suits well for this type of adventure which is more about exploration anyway. Boss battles are well designed and fun. Recommended buy!… Expand

   This is definitely the best Zelda-like game for PS4. To me, that is enough to give 9/10 for this game. This is like the games used to be. MyThis is definitely the best Zelda-like game for PS4. To me, that is enough to give 9/10 for this game. This is like the games used to be. My favourite parts where Island of Whispers (you have to talk to the man at the pier to get there) - that was a nice "hidden" side quest. Maybe there could be few more island in an update?… Expand

   A Great Adventure
   Ocean Horn is a Legend of Zelda Styled Adventure Game where you play as a boy who finds his father has left to slay the oceanhorn..
   You then set out on an adventure to help him...
   The gameplay and level design is quite simple…
   You have a sword, shield and magic…
   Before you can defeat the oceanhorn you must find the emblems of the Earth Ocean and sun
   and to get to these locations you need information…
   You run around each island looking for new information to send you to the next… this is a bit of a goose chase… and such an enjoyable goose chase
   As you run around there will be enemies trying to stop you, treasure to collect, bloodstone to find… new equipment and magic to help you in other locations…
   Spots you can’t get to yet…
   There is such a great feeling of discovery here…
   It’s so fun to explore and figure out how to get to different areas…
   Leave an island to search for a different item to reach an area you can’t quite get to…
   This treasure collecting and environmental puzzle solving is the majority of the game…
   Its 12 hours of the same thing from start to finish, but the pacing here is so well balanced that it never gets tiring.. there’s a perfect balance between adventure, combat, and problem solving…
   When it is finally time to go after one of the 3 emblems, there is a boss there guarding it…
   And this unfortunately is when the bad of the game starts to show…
   Don’t get me wrong... I loved the bosses in this game…
   They are challenging in their own way…
   But the mechanics of the actual game hinders this otherwise great experience…
   For starters... the camera is atrocious, especially during the ocean emblem boss battle…
   The camera will lock onto the boss, cause the camera to go underneath your character, in front of your character, to the side…. Instead of sticking with you…
   I’d much rather let the boss run around and do his thing while I set up to take him out…
   It adds an unnecessary layer of frustration to an already tough to deal with situation…
   Another annoyance I have here is that when you do die... which you will, a lot…
   Your inventory of bombs, arrows, mana, and health does restore…
   The health is the biggest slap in the face as no matter how many heart containers you’ve found, if you die you respawn with only 3 health… witch btw only takes one hit from a bomb in the 2nd to last boss battle to kill you… Sure there are tricks like going out of the room to break containers for drops, but it’s an annoying hassle to have to go out and manually restock your items and health…
   It’s like you did so great the first time when you died going in with full health magic, and 10 bombs, try again with 33% of your health no magic and no bombs
   And to make it worse, despite the game remembering the progress of your item usage.. It completely forgets the damage you did to the boss…
   He gets to start full health…
   Garbage rules and camera aside
   Each and every boss fight is enjoyable and insanely satisfying when you take that punk down…
   Ocean Horn is a great game…
   So much adventure, so much content…
   I couldn’t put it down…
   I give Oceanhorn Monster of Uncharted Seas
   an 8/10… Expand
