Indivisible

Pros
+Art is Excellent
+Combat puts me in mind of more evolved Valkyrie profile with some fighting game influence
+Soundtrack is very good
+Traversal is fun
+Interactions between Ajna and other characters
Cons
-The intro is a little jarring as it just kinda happens with no lead in (very small gripe)
-Some characters are extremely weak while others are insanely strong.
-Quick travel system sometimes make you walk entire maps to get to
-Some mechanics could have been explained better
After finishing the game I can say this is probably the most original metroidvania I have played. The price is high for a game like this but overall i would say it was wort it.

TL;DR: 20 odd hours of play time is worth it for the visuals alone. If it was longer the cons would have overstayed their welcome. Get it during a sale.
Pros:
1) Fantastic visuals
2) good voice acting
3) great character design
4) at the start of the game you have interesting combat.
Cons:
1) At the mid point of the game, right when you really get the hang of the combat it becomes trivial. Not mind you because you've mastered the combat, but because even button mashing can destroy a group of baddies in one round. "Harder" baddies are just HP sponges.
2) The end game is all just backtracking trough the very large platforming levels, at this point I expected to get some sort of 'teleport between save points' quality of life upgrade ability... but no.
3) Ability bloat, too many over world abilities, some which get used only a few times and then you get a new one that does what the old one did, but better... except for the few times you need to still use the old version. Should have flat out upgraded/replaced them.
4) The story is... I know what it was trying to do, but it does it poorly. The worst part is with some polish it could have hit what it wanted to do without too much trouble. And it shows.
Its greatest sin is that I can SEE the good game here, its just under this tarnished unpolished surface.

Indivisible is a game that actually played out way better than I thought. It had some rough moments in terms of the story starting off with bad pacing and no tutorial for a few of the combat mechanics (combos and breaking enemy guard) but the art style, platform/over world mechanics and the unique battle system was more than enough to make up for me.
Story
As I mentioned, the story does start off with some bad pacing. Stuff that is important at that moment, feels like it becomes an after thought usually within minutes. A lot gets thrown at you that you question if it's going to be important and then some stuff you can't even bother with until later in the game. The middle and ending of the game is where it picks up and quickly goes into a very bittersweet story that keeps the pace going. The characters are the true driving force for the overall story, Ajna being one of the biggest turn arounds for character development in a game that I have personally seen -- and that's a good thing. She starts off being bi-polar, bratty, childish and temper tantrums, then has revenge on her mind for her father who was killed, then turns very egotistical when it comes to learning she needs to save the world, to the point she starts becoming selfish at others request for help if it's not aligned with her own goals, screwing things up and causing way more harm than good. Something happens (don't want to spoil what it is) that causes her to doubt in her actions and her previous mindset, and actually has her do a complete 180 in her personality where she listens and tries to help, instead of just beating up everything and worrying about it after. All the characters have a very diverse personality that is there from recruiting them or meeting them, that really amplifies at the ending. Going back to the characters, when you first start the game, if you look at your party, you assume there's only going to be about 6-7 playable characters, of which you get most of those slots filled in within the first hour or two, but actually there is over 20 you can unlock, with DLC coming down the road adding in new characters, like Shovel Knight and Shantae. The story length is on the shorter side, you can probably knock the game out in about 20 hours. There's not a lot of side quests, most of them are for optional characters or different colour palettes for characters, but other than that, the story shouldn't take a person too long to finish.
Graphics
The graphics are phenomenal, reminded me a lot of Shantae Half Genie Hero and I believe that was the main reason I bought it when it originally came out. Very vibrant environments, even places like caves and town areas look gorgeous in their background detail. The in-game art for cutscenes and the few fully animated cutscenes in here are very well done, you can tell a good budget went into those, which gives a nice crisp and beautiful art style for the whole game.
Soundtrack
Soundtrack was a little 60/40 for me. There was plenty of music within the game that I liked, but there also were a few that become background/white noise, either because I was way more interested in the combat that was happening or because I happen to just tone out noises when I get into reading.
Gameplay
Boom here we go, gameplay, man, fantastic. So, as I mentioned, art style reminds me of Shantae, gameplay originally reminded me of that too. It looks like a Metroidvania where you just go and kill enemies by hitting them a few times in the overworld; HOWEVER, the combat is actually that of an RPG/JRPG. Attacking an enemy will initiate a battle that becomes move based, where there are 3 combos per character, Up and their attack button, Down and their attack button and then just their attack button. That is then managed by a move gauge per character that refills when no moves from your party are active, so it's entirely possible to kill an enemy before they can even attack you if you manage that gauge as certain moves will refill the gauge quicker than other moves. You can kill them in the overworld if you're able to combo them, easiest way is an arrow, followed by chains of down attacks and up attacks, which you can chain them in for kills without starting a battle (not sure if this gives any EXP or not.) This combat is a unique aspect that I personally have not seen before in a Metroidvania and it worked out so well, thrown in with the visuals, wonderful. Sadly there is no sequence breaking at this current state, but there is going to be a New Game+ patch coming out soon, where you keep your abilities you've gained from the main story, so I'm 100% sure that is going to allow sequence breaking. The overworld is pretty linear. The last 3 areas of the game are where they actually become somewhat puzzles as you'll have to utilise all the abilities you've learned to get by and messing it up is not forgiving at all in some parts. I didn't mind the more linear overworld as not everything has to be too complex, but I did appreciate the difficulty spike in maneuvering around the map during the last few areas.
Cons
- Combat controls. So, you get a tutorial on how to block, parry and how to use your attacks. However, I can not recall being told how to break an enemy guarding or even that every character has 3 types of attacks. If you don't break an enemy's guard, you will do 1 damage which will drag out fights or downright make them impossible. To break guard, just mix up attacks, if you do an up attack, follow up with a down attack. Breaks guard on second hit.
- Story starts off a little weak due to bad pacing at the start. Literally Ajna's father dies within minutes, her killer is first party member, Ajna seems more annoyed with him than anything and a few minutes later, you recruit someone else and her father's death and his killer become like an after thought as Ajna is joking around with the new character. They also kind of drop the ball on a major plot point near the end, basically seems like the main changing pace from the middle to the end, was basically forgotten about.
- No true fast travel, this is somewhat tedious as if you're trying to finish up the character side missions, you're going to be doing a lot of running around as the fast travel locations only drop you off to a certain area, there are no multiple fast travels in any area.
Summary
- Gorgeous visuals, seriously, the art in general for the game is easily in the top percent for games I have played of this caliber.
- Unique and fluid combat system that was different, but something I feel fit the pace way better instead of just overworld attacking and moving on.
- A short story of 20-ish hours with a not too difficult world to navigate, something you can just kick back, relax and enjoy a game.
- Very strong character development for the main character that is a quick pace after certain events and the cast of characters all have their little interesting stories about them, that is further showed during the ending sequence of the game when speaking with Ajna.
Conclusion
Indivisible is a game that first caught my attention due to the art of it but getting to play it, I stayed due to the unique combat system with exploration that I haven't seen paired together like this for a Metroidvania game. The story is a little weak and rough at the start, if you've played around with a lot of RPG games, the story isn't that hard to guess where it's going, there's no real big twists to it (maybe one -- the turning point,) but I don't think that's what they were aiming to do and I didn't expect anything of the sort. Instead, the story shines more with the characters in it and the main development of Ajna from how she was at the start to the end of the game. If you've played games like Shantae, Ori, and maybe Hollow Knight and Bloodstained Ritual of the Night -- no doubt you'll enjoy this game.
I'll give the rating a 8/10!

A Wandering RPG Adventure Review
Pros:
+ Insane amount of characters
+ A beautiful set of soundtracks
+ Almost fully voiced.
+ Almost no loading screens.
Cons:
- The interest of the story decreases with time.
- Some stages are unnecessarily large.
Indivisible is a crowd-funded Metroidvania game with Turn-Based combat elements born from the ideas of the creators of Skullgirls and published by 505 games (at this point, you should know about both games and the publisher). As soon as I saw the cover of the game it reminded me of Bastion, a slightly better-known game from another company.
Gameplay
The game encourages backtracking and the exploring the environment. There are also a lot of platform sections where the character has to use different skills to move forward. In combat mode, every character will have an assigned key or controller button. When pressed, you activate an action by that character. Since it is a turn-based RPG, you can even block during enemy attacks, a very important part of the battle since the enemies won't hesitate to take half of any character's HP at once if left defenseless. In fact, if the characters block an attack with perfect timing, the enemy will do zero damage (even healing 1HP to the character!). However, enemies can also block your incoming attacks. In order to prevent this, you'll need to combo your character attacks to break their defense. Last but not least, attacking and blocking successively generates "Iddhi" (I prefer calling it "chi"). This chi can be used by every single character in order to make devastating attacks that can affect multiple enemies at once, or heal all allies. In time, this chi accumulate and split into three, or even five more parts, and depending on how many you've accumulated for each character, they gain access to higher ranks of their abilities.
Soundtracks
The developers made very good work with the musical pieces, perfectly selected to fit with each environment and situation. However, this game has an insane amount of background tracks, which makes it impossible to enjoy the entire soundtrack at once in the game, so I ended searching for it on the internet. The result? More than SEVENTY tracks in the game! I recommend taking your time to listen to the title theme "Eulogia," and all the emotions it conveys.
What about the difficulty?
The difficulty increases as the game progresses, more than I would like. You better take notes of where to go and what to do because getting lost in this game is a fact! (Gosh, I quit a few times because of this). On the other hand, there is no difficulty level to choose from (no easy, medium, hard selection)--only the possibility to level up, and find collectibles that will increase your defense and attack stats. Want an extra challenge? Try to find the secret bosses that will put your skills to the test.
Characters, there are too many!
How many playable characters can you play with? The answer is TWENTY-FIVE. Twenty-five fully-animated playable characters! This number became extremely painful when I realised that I only ended using up to seven of them (with a limit of 4 per battle). All the characters are very well designed, and you can change their skin whenever you want. Yes, there are more than 100 skins available. Sadly, I see this is an ABSOLUTE WASTE OF TIME since the game doesn’t force you to play with all the characters. You'll probably end up always using the same ones that suit you best. It's almost like being a Pokemon master all over again.
No in-game currency, no shops
I really miss buying items and skills, or in other words, merchandise that helps to develop your characters. I would definitely prefer this over being able to change character skins. It might be plot related because the main character, Ajna, has a real hate against money throughout the game. Another important thing to mention is that it's hard to farm experience. There are very few places where enemies will respawn, and most of the time you have to change from one location to another just to trigger those respawns.
Extra content?
Most of the additional content of this game was based on the kickstarter goals back in development. This includes the secret bosses, rooms, extra characters… Something that I really miss is a new game+ function here. It would have been great to have all unlocked items at the very beginning of a game for a replay. Now, there are plenty of optional quests and collectibles (hard ones) to find... these collectibles can be used to improve the stats of your adventurers. But this is complicated by a menu that isn't very detailed, or at least was hard for me to figure out where to go. The game also has a few achievements, mostly related to the story (automatically unlocked), with a few exceptions for the side quests and collectibles mentioned earlier.
Conclusion
The first hours of indivisible are the best of the game, so the first impressions felt great. The difficulty starts to increase, though with the platform stages considerably. Having to constantly break enemy defense formations manually becomes a little bit tedious, especially in the beginning when trying to learn the ropes. Something that bothers me a bit is that there are no weapons or items to use in battles (and there are many battles). Also, there are simply too many characters, to the point that it doesn't matter if you don't try them all. And finally, it's easy to become lost in its quests because of a lack of clear direction. At one point in the game, you need to find a gadget and can visit three cities. I lost a lot of time backtracking only to find out that I went everywhere but the correct place from the start.
For these reasons, even if you're a big RPG and Metroidvania fan, I'd recommend this title at a 20% discount (the original backer’s price). But don't get me wrong, it is certainly an experience worth paying for.

Post-review note: What the hell happened so all screenshots got deleted from review? And i can't put them back either. All of them was spoiler-free, first time ever i see something like this :|
Post-review note#2: they appeared again, still not sure what was that 0_o.
Meanwhile, hope you guys enjoy the game.
Indivisible appeared first in 2015 as a Prototype Demo, while launching an Indiegogo (kickstarter-like similar platform) campaign. The demo (i played it on PS4) was really amazing and the game quickly acquired 2.000.000 $USD with 32.703 backers (which means 61.1$ average per backer). And now, we finally got a full game. It's been almost 4 years, they sure took a lot of time to finish it, but the waiting was worth it.
You may also known Lab Zero Games, because they also developed a famous "Skullgirls" fighting game.
p.s. There was some issues at launch for some users, but all of those are fixed now and game is perfectly playable.
The Story
You play as "Ajna". A pretty active and cheerful girl, that first kick things and then thinks afterwards. She's trained personally by her father, thus Ajna is quite proficient in martial arts.
From that games goes quite at fast pace, your father is killed and village burned entirely. Then you fight with the soldier named "Dhar", that killed your father and......absorb him into your mind. Yeah, and now you travel together and he helps you on your journey of revenge, even against his will.
This ^ sounds kinda strange, but if you play the game a bit more, you will understand Dhar's personality, his motives and events that lead to that. Not gonna spoil anything, but Lab Zero Games did a really good job with most characters development in Indivisible.
Other than that, Razmi (a shaman/witch like person) is absolutely hillarous with her sarcastic comments. She's basically the biggest troll and memeuser in your party, however, don't think that's all to her personality, since she's not only that.
The Gameplay
Back when Prototype Demo was released, the devs decided you use a battle system similar to the very first Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth (released on Playstation 1 in 1999 and PSP remaster later somewhere in 2007). That system is pretty simple and engaging at the same time. Basically each of your fighter is one button on your controller. By utilizing correct timing and combos you jiggle your opponent (this means you combo your opponent in the air and won't allow him to drop on the ground).
Each character in the game is REALLY UNIQUE, this feature got it's good and bad sides. However, don't let that discourage you, as you can complete the game with pretty much any party. Just be aware that some bosses got really long fights and it's best to have at least one dedicated healer in your party.
Leaving battle system aside, the movement outside of battles are done in platformer-like fashion. During your adventures you will find more weapons for Ajna, unlock new skills and level up. Important note is that you should initiate battle sequence first, you can do that via block&counterattack, or by using the available weapons or abilities at your disposal. Sometimes it's possible to kill the enemy on field without triggering a direct battle, but not in early game.
Another honor mention would be voiceovers for characters. English voice actors really did a good job in this game, my favorites are Razmi and Zebei, especially Zebei. My kudos to that voice actor, really well done.
Bonus: look at those hillarious WANTED! posters for Ajna and Dhar.
The Final Verdict
9/10
The game got a great sense of humor and adventure, really strong and serious story later on and amazing battle system & music. The weakest part of it is...the art for side NPC (sometimes i was thinking that it would be better if there was no art at all for side NPC's) and some weak characters in your party with strange/gimmick mechanics or not really comfortable to use.
- This review was presented to you by "Casual Game Reviews" Steam Curator.

i'm having a great time with the game. You kind of NEED a controller to play the game since the PC controls are all wacky, but outside of that this game has been pretty awesome so far.

This is certainly a game that in it's current state, I wish Steam had a neutral rating for, or a rating system broken into separate sections.
What I Like
The game is absolutely stunning. From the almost painted backgrounds of the levels, to the animated cutscenes, as well as the interesting character portraits in the chat dialog, it makes for a nice and colourful experience.
The animated opening created by Studio TRIGGER and Titmouse is glorious.
Combat. I love the character-per-button system. It takes quite a bit from usual fighters in which you can chain combos, juggle opponents, change character poses, etc.
The soundtrack is a delight. It fits in well with the levels and the amount of energy Ajna brings to the game.
The platforming elements as you explore the world can be quite fun, though is a bit flawed, see below.
Character designs are awesome! They've all got unique personalities, custom animations, special attacks, etc
Enemies have a tonne of variety and custom move sets for them all. You're not going to get bored of them!
I feel the story is quite engaging, even if it's a little predictable.
The game doesn't hold your hand so it can be quite challenging at times, even in the early parts.
What I Don't Like
Controls (pt1). The character-per-button system is nice, however when you get your 4th party member it feels like you shift from tactical attacking to just button mashing. Not to mention, that even with a controller, exploring the levels can feel a bit clunky at times making it frustrating. Run-jumping can often feel a bit slow, and run-sliding can feel a bit counter-intuitive. I don't particularly like the interaction keybindings... pressing the up button to start a conversation, or holding B and pressing down to access the save point is odd to me.
Some scenes seem to miss voice acting and character portraits, even some missing animations during cutscenes and whatnot. Not a big deal but can kind of break the immersion at times.
Controls (pt2) Keyboard/mouse play stands to be much improved. My review was done mostly with a xbox 360 controller however.
Wall jumping is an odd one for me, it's not quite what I expect coming from games that execute it pretty well.
I wish the combo system was explained a bit better. I feel as if the game fails to set you up for your adventure. A full blown tutorial isn't needed, however something more than a 4 second popup in the middle of a match that you barely notice because you're concentrating on the rest of the fight isn't great.
In one of the earlier boss fights, you're made to chase him down, knock his health down a certain amount, let him run away, dodge a few fireballs and repeat a few more times with the fireballs getting more intense. However as mentioned, the controls above are quite clunky, so timing the jumps takes a few shots... but then you die, and have to start the boss battle from the beginning... again. Which brings you back to button mashing.
TL;DR
+ The story is good. Soundtrack is amazing. Animations, art and world are all stunning. Combat is interesting.
- Controls are a bit clunky (even with a controller. No tutorial system.
Conclusion (should you buy it?)
If you can deal with the few downfalls, it's truly a game to experience. I would certainly recommend it.
At the time of writing, its standard price of AUD$60 might be a bit too much to swallow though.
