Created by the talented team of Ubisoft Montréal using the UbiArt Framework, Child of Light is an RPG inspired by fairy tales. The Black Queen has stolen the Sun, the Moon and the Stars. You play as Aurora, a young princess with a pure heart whose soul is brought to the kingdom of Lemuria.
Embark on a quest to recapture the three sources of light, defeat the Black Queen and restore the kingdom of Lemuria.
Child of Light is also available on XBox One.
Every aspect of Child of Light has an unmistakably artisinal, organic feel to it.
Ubisoft has decided to make an experiment, and Child of Light is their first, successful creature. The French developers showed not only knowledge of the basics of the JRPG genre, but also the ability to reshape and merge them into a bewitching and artistically beautiful product.
It's a magical 2D RPG you just have to love. The art style and the fitting characters create a visual highlight.
Child of Light is one of the most attractive, beautiful and atmospheric games I have played in recent years. The fairytale script is good enough to travel you back to your childhood, filling you with nostalgia, the art direction can leave you speechless, as well as the amazing soundtrack. If you are willing to ignore the low difficult level, you will enjoy one of the most honest and full of soul games ever. However, if challenge is what you seek, then it is better to look somewhere else.
A game with a tremendous, top notch style but a distinctive lack of depth, Child of Light is a fragile and ephemeral dream.
A beautiful game to look at, and wonderfully polished, but a thimble-deep RPG.
Child of Light perhaps doesn't shine as bright as it might, but it's nonetheless quite a dazzling sight.
