Story

Hundreds of years after the events of Yuurei, a young boy called Holm awakes in the desolate Lac D'Amour with no memory of his past. Soon, he meets Flect, a mysterious girl with deep knowledge of the Labyrinth. Join the two of them on their treacherous journey to find the source of all ghosts and save the world from a powerful force.

Holm has reduced defense at the start - don't let it take you by surprise!
Magic stream powers up the longer you hold the button down. Use this strategically to mow down your foes!
Some obstacles can be more easily tackled with one character or the other. Switch carefully to make things easier!
Press the Map button on the subscreen to quick switch between characters.
Difficulty can be set from warp gates in-game.

Credits

Please beat the game for a full list of credits.

However, I'd like to give a special shout-out to Dimi, Evan, Moosh, and Russ, all of whom tested and contributed content such as bosses. And in particular, I'd like to thank Russ for being endlessly encouraging and patient over the long time I've been making this game. I couldn't have done it without him.

I beat this about a week ago or so but never had the time to review it until right now, so here we are lol. This is a fantastic conclusion to the trilogy, perhaps my favourite of the three even. The story was really well executed and very interesting, with charming characters throughout. The area design was really cool, I can't quite pinpoint a favourite area but I was a big fan of the space-looking area near the top left and the Neon Corridor sections. The difficulty was challenging (I played on Normal) but nothing over the top or crazily extreme, so the difficulty balance was well managed throughout. The areas themselves were very creative too and it was very satisfying finally figuring out where I needed to go in some places, so the progression was really good there.

I can't really think of any negatives for the main quest honestly, this quest is extremely well crafted. I think the only thing that I wasn't the biggest fan of was the postgame stuff with the rouge-like area. 30 floors certainly dragged on for a bit too long for me and I started to get a little bored of doing the same thing all the time, so it could've definitely been condensed a bit IMO. But compared to the quest as a whole, that's barely a big deal lol.

Easy 5/5 from me, congrats on making such an awesome quest. Now I'll probably go replay Yuurand for like the 5th time

Personally I really enjoyed battling against very hard bosses. I also felt they are a bit too hard for story-driven.

Rake-on is the long awaited sequel to both Leafblower-off and Hoes Mad At Acheron thus marking the end of the Lawnwork trilogy. If you haven't played the first two, I strongly recommend playing them first both to better appreciate the plot and to get you more familiar with the game's systems as this game is substantially tougher than the past entries. While you can play (and appreciate) this game without the prior games, it can't be overstated that you'll miss a lot if you tealdeer through them. The areas in this quest are some of the most interesting in the series, and the enemy/boss design is quite good as well. It's difficult to talk too much about the story without spoilers, but I think it's competent does what it sets out to do pretty well, and the characterization of the cast is aided by humorous subscreen skits in each area. There's also a substantial postgame that gives you a lot more to do and is surprisingly replayable to keep you invested for quite some time.
