Child of Light

Date played: June 5th
Platform: PS4
Session fun rating: 8/10

Underwater looting
Again, I was only able to play a short time before my daughter had to go to bed, but I managed to fully explore the swampy area I had reached last time. I pretty much just battled and crafted occuli. There was a little underwater cave I found along the way. It was devoid of enemies, but has a fun navigational challenge where I had to reach a door before a timer runs out, all while fighting strong water currents. I've discovered two new types of occuli too, from experimenting and trying different combinations. It uses up a LOT of gems, but I can now craft Onyx and Spinel gems, which can boost attack power and spell power, as well as a bunch of other useful stuff.
