I first played this game for a week straight when I visited some friends in North Carolina, and I haven't played much else over the last three days. The art style is gorgeously detailed, yet minimalist, the enemy design is inspired and readable, and everything in the game is communicated incredibly well. It's easy to pick up, easy to play, and satisfyingly difficult to master. No two characters play the same, and characters that you look at and think you probably wouldn't like might turn out to be your favorite and vice-versa.
19 Steam hours isn't a lot, but as I said, my first experience was a week of play with friends halfway across the country, learning, improving, and falling in love with this game. Petrichor V will take you and break you, poison, burn and bleed you, and tear you apart more times than you can count, but it'll keep you coming back, and through it all, you'll survive.
In simplest terms, this game ♥♥♥♥♥♥' rocks.
