''Child, tuck yourself in bed
For it is late at night.
But I'll tell you of a game,
My favourite: Child of Light.
Child of Light's a side-scrolling Role-Playing Game,
By Ubisoft Montreal, of Assassin's Creed fame.
Released for consoles of the 7th and 8th generation,
On April 29th, 2014, to much ovation.
It takes its influence from JRPGs of yore,
Such as Final Fantasy, Chrono Cross and more,
The turn-based, real-time combat is by Grandia inspired,
And it used the selfsame engine the Rayman reboots required.
It tells of young Aurora, a little lady fair,
Our heroine, from Austria, a duke's beloved heir.
One night she taketh ill, her face turns grey,
And sadly, by illness wracked, she passes soon away.
However, then she stirs awake in another place,
Her father's familiar duchy gone, without a trace.
Lemuria is its name, as it is soon discovered,
And not long after that, a fiendish plot is soon uncovered.
A vile and nasty villain, the Queen of the Night,
Has stolen this amazing land's every source of light,
The moon, the stars, even the sun, all are simply gone,
And so a task to bring them back, to Aurora is passed on.
The story of the game, and all the character's lines,
Are in a manner much like this told, to wit, in rhymes.
As for the art, well, it was caref'lly made to bear a similarity,
To watercolour paintings (and it practically has parity!)
The game had positive reviews from publications many,
(and that much alone should be a testament if any
to this game's quality) - but I've said enough tonight.
When morning comes, then you can have a go at Child of Light.''
