    Just wanted add one more voice saying how great this game is! I love the exploration, and the story is also compelling. I'm at 61% completion right now, with close to 30 hours played. Yeah, I'm slow...

    I wanted to mention a couple things I haven't seen here yet:

    You can skip a cutscene by double tapping (just discovered this). Very useful when repeating boss fights!

    And one very minor issue for the devs (if they see this): When you level up, it says your items have been refilled, but this means to the initial max levels, not the current max levels. So you can actually lose items if you had more than the original max amount.

    Again, awesome game, and I really hope it does well so we see more premium games of this scale with no F2P and IAP stuff!

    Casting spells

    Hi, I've just received my first spell but I can't figure out how to cast it. There's no item button on my display (I have to tap the mini map to bring up the main menu to change weapons), and it won't let me select the spell to use it. Can anyone help please?

    You tap the "Item" button to access your equipment and spells.

    EDIT - oops, I just re-read your post and noticed that you say that the item button is missing from your display.

    At the bottom of the screen (near the center; maybe a bit to the right) is a little white symbol. Touch that. It brings up some icons. Things on the right let you select your second items (like shield or bombs), and things on the left are spells. You should have only one right now (the force spell), and it should be bluish. Touch that, and at the bottom of the screen should be a message telling you to select a target. Then tap on the item you want to cast the spell at, and it should happen. HTH.

    Edit: Just read the ninjaed reply. Not sure what to do if your item button is missing.

    So is there a trick to knowing which walls to blow up like the cracks in Zelda or am I just supposed to run around trying to blow up everything?

    Side note, I really wish there was a bigger map. The level design in this game is confusing and it's hard to keep track of where I'm going and where I've been.

    If I recall correctly, only walls that can be blown up are hit by your sword, making a small "thud" and some debris fall off; other non-interactive walls simply let you slice "through" them.

    I still haven't played nearly enough of this game.
    Thanks for the insight.

    I'm still at just 91% on withered island. I've played through it over and over. No clue what I'm missing. I've checked and bombed everywhere. Ugh. No clue...any tips? I'm now at 50 bloodstones, thanks to hammerbros, and every chest I can see is open.

    Don't go in the well a second time

    I was randomly exploring and jumped back into the well a second time. Anyways, I don't think there is a way out! The first time around it teleports you out once you open a specific chest, but since that chest is open already I think I am stuck there. I even tried deleting the save files for the grave and although the chests could be reopened, it would not teleport me out. Can't wait for the update.

    Guess what? Classified.
    Classified.
    In the area you start in, you can either go onto where the grave and the notes are, or go north-west where there are stairs that get you out.

    You should chop off its arms. And when it tries to swallow you climb up to the upper level and open jars and shoot him with your arrow. Always go to the upper level when it does his vacuum thing. It'll be a lot easier to avoid him this way. And when attacking to its arms use the special attack(hold attack button)

    Don't know what all the fuss about this is the graphics are mediocre, characters are boring, story is childish, gameplay is simple, puzzles are easy and the controls are awful like wading through treacle they are so unresponsive.

    Gave up on it. Deleted.
