Steven Universe: Save the Light is an action-adventure role-playing game developed by Grumpyface Studios and published by Cartoon Network Games. Based on the television series Steven Universe, it is a sequel to the mobile game Steven Universe: Attack the Light. It was released on the Nintendo Switch in October 2018.
Gameplay[]
Save the Light features seven playable characters from the series, Steven, Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Connie, Greg and Peridot, with an eighth character to be added in a future content update; four characters can be equipped to a party at a time. The game has a blend of real-time and turn-based combat, and more of a focus on exploration and puzzle-solving than its predecessor. Players are able to explore Beach City and surrounding areas, and engage in battles with enemies. During battle, the players' actions, which include attacking and defending, will build up the star meter, which allows the characters to pull off more powerful moves. A new feature allows characters to build up a relationship-based meter during battles and dialogue interactions; when filled, certain characters are able to fuse, such as Steven and Connie into Stevonnie.
Plot[]
After the events of Attack the Light!, Steven, the Gems and their friends go on a quest to retrieve the Light Prism when the Homeworld Gem Hessonite steals it.
Reception[]
This game got good reviews from most critics, with a 9/10 from Steam, but got a 54 from Metacritic for technical issues and long loading screens, along with stability issues.
