      I've been playing through for the first time with my 4yo son and he loves it. It's a fun casual RPG. The battle timing and attack buttons are a bit frustrating, but it's grown on me to keep things interesting. We're a good 40 hours playtime too.

      God that’s gotta be fat margins for them. Likely over 75 million in revenue for a remaster.
