Mina The Hollower Traps You In The Bayou (To Teach You That You Can Get Out)

Mina The Hollower Traps You In The Bayou (To Teach You That You Can Get Out) https://ift.tt/ReSImk2 Mina the Hollower is very visually similar to classic Game Boy and Game Boy Color Zelda games like Link's Awakening and the Oracle duology. But mechanically it's significantly different, and Yacht Club discovered the distinction ran the risk of confusing players when it started putting the game in front of playtesters. As a result, it had to find clever ways to send a signal to players about this game's different expectations.
