Our take on Lost Wish: In the desperate world
The store page emphasizes pixel art, bosses, and a large metroidvania world, but gives less space to explaining how the story and exploration are structured. Its presentation leans toward atmosphere and scale rather than a detailed account of progression.
What is Lost Wish: In the desperate world?
A 2D metroidvania platformer follows Kana, a young girl driven by revenge.
She travels through a cruel world, overcomes obstacles, defeats monsters, and searches for secrets connected to the characters’ feelings and desires. Combat requires decisions about when to attack, roll, or rush, since rushing can be fatal. Items can provide advantages during battles. The game includes more than 400 rooms to explore, sidequests, bosses, pixel artwork, hand-drawn anime dialogue sprites, and unusual references intended to lighten the atmosphere. Kana asks Alice to help find someone who betrayed her in the past, while the story examines whether Kana will stop after achieving that goal and how her actions may affect the world.
