Adam Hurd of GameGrin reviews Summer In Mara, writing: “Summer In Mara was an emotional rollercoaster. It’s a title with a very strong identity marred by repetition, poorly executed padding and bugs that make it difficult to progress. It lures you in with its charming visual style reminiscent of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and an introduction animation that would turn the heads of any Studio Ghibli fan before it forces you through an endless array of agonising fetch quests. Summer In Mara should by all means be an instant gem, but developer Chibig manages to waste this beautiful world filled with incredible characters by ensuring that you can’t have any fun in it.”
