Certain enemies are better dealt with by John while others are handled best by Sam. The pair often need to split up and take different paths in order for both to make their way through an area. Where the gameplay diverges from the Legend of Zelda formula is that players are usually controlling John and Sam at the same time and can hot-swap between the two. The gameplay of Eastward is top-down action following the tradition of classic Legend of Zelda games with quick attacks, various tools, weapons, and upgrades that are added over time to deal with specific situations and obstacles. Behind everything is a grand mystery that unfolds over time in a way that is very “kids on bikes” and it’s charming. This tale Involves government conspiracy, a spunky scientist, ghosts, and traveling thespians. Her desire to see for herself launches the two of them into a grand adventure that spans a string of cities along train tracks. When Sam starts to talk about having been above ground and seeing green, people don’t believe her. One of the key parts of Eastward is its setting as a post-disaster world where many people live underground or in extremely isolated communities. John is a stern silent type, while Sam is an excitable dream big type who believes in helping people. He takes her in as his own and it’s soon clear that Sam adores John, and that John will go to great lengths to keep Sam safe. Eastward follows the story of John, an older “working Joe” type who comes across a little girl, Sam, down in the depths of a mine. Eastward starts after being treated to a very charming 2D animated intro featuring various characters and locations in peaceful and action-centric scenes.
