This game is a fantastic platformer for those with the patience or dedication to see it al the way through. There is definitely a sense of accomplishment once you finally conquer the mountain. Every time I died (a lot) on my first playthrough, it wasn't rage inducing, but rather made me want to finish the level I was on that much more.
The art style and music of this game is amazing! I've listened to the soundtrack outside of gaming quite a bit.
Sharpen your reflexes and pick this one up for a challenge, albeit a fun one.

Celeste is the best game that I have played ever, everything from the gameplay to the music and the artwork is top notch, and Limited Run Games did a great job making this once digital only title available physically (with manual as well)

The amount of attention that was given to a game with a simple concept is stunning. It provides a great challenge with tight controls, whenever you miss your mark you know it’s your fault not the controls.

This is a very enjoyable & entertaining game! Especially if you like 2D games. The story is excellent & it offers a rewarding tale. Love the sound of the game & the 1980s retro game feel.

Celeste is a good game that is hard. It is a platformer that were you will die a lot, but it is so fun and the story is good that it does bother me that much.

This game is one word beautiful. A very fun platform / puzzle game. Added to a wonderful story to it. I hardly recommend this game before it sells out. I wish I would have bought the collector's edition on limited run website. This is a must have on your Nintendo switch.

I bought this game because i wanted to break away from the modern Games i usually play Its a very simple yet complicated platformer. Celeste was highly reviewed or recommended in 2018 i believe and when i found out it was on the switch i thought hey i can check this game out and on the go
Ive given it 4 stars just because i haven't passed it but ill get there :)

After reading A LOT about how great Celeste was, I had to see if it lived up to the hype. I'm happy to say the critics were not wrong. Celeste is fantastic. The story is okay, revolving around a girl named Madeline who is climbing a mountain, which is a metaphor for her struggle with depression. However the game play is the main draw for me. The platforming will challenge even veteran gamers, and like the struggle of climbing the mountain, you too will struggle getting through each stage, but get a little better each time, and it feels really rewarding when you do.
I ended up finishing the main game, collecting all the non-golden strawberries hidden in each level, and tackling all the B-Side and C-Side versions of each stage. I'm currently on the last screen of the Farewell DLC. Celeste is now one of my longest played games on the Switch, and I highly recommend it. Casual gamers have a few options to make the game easier, but otherwise it might frustrate them, so I would only recommend this to skilled gamers.
