Really, the issue with this game is that getting stuck on a save brings about pure misery because the difficulty tends to be concentrated in one or two jumps per save, which often appear near or at the end. The more you struggle, the worse your experience will tend to be; or on the flip-side, if you're cruising through most of the game then suddenly get walled, it's almost always going to feel terrible to forge ahead.
I maintain that the game, overall, is good, even if the last quarter is worse than the rest, particularly the water and archfoe screens. But be warned that if needle at this difficulty is at (or past) your limit, you'll probably not have a fun time.

As far as my tastes are concerned, it's the best Kale game without contest.

The first game of the crimson needle series and it's just generic needle that i had fun with most of the time.The rooms that are bad however are pretty egregious and i had a miserable time playing them and just wanted it to be over already.Would recommend if you don't mind a 100 floor needle game with some awful rooms and goofy ass difficulty balance.

A long needle journey. There are some ups and downs but I think it was worth going through. You can see why this guy became the Dark Souls of needle makers.
