This is a game ported from mobile, but it’s a good port. Some of the riddles were even redesign to match with PC controller. Ok, so what it is? An adventure game with a lot of influences from scandinavian foklore. It’s the end of a year, you are going through a ritual to see a future. While doing this you will meet some creatures from folklore, like souls of dead children and ghost of a river horse. The gameplay is nice, the mood is set beautifully and I would love it, if there weren’t those freaking jumpscares. Really. The game is scaring you in the most primitive way, and I hate it. Everything else is so well made, that it’s a real shame,that I couldn’t enjoy playing in the way I should.

One Finger Death Punch 2

8/10

I loved the first part and this one is also very good. It’s a basic entertainment - you have two buttons, enemies are coming from left and right. Mash those buttons to kill everyone. But the speed, animations, sound, everything is so well done that it is a pure fun to play. I finished a main campaign, there are still some little things to do, but I had enough. Still - highly recomended.

This game is stupid. And it knows it. And it’s proud of it. It is gaming counterpart of cheap action movies - Jean Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal style. Gameplay side - it’s a part brawler, part platformer. Plot? Who cares. The bad guy killed you, but he really didn’t and he kidnapped your girlfriend. Add to this a bit of Mayan/Aztec curses, a magical artefact to concur the world, tons of one liners and A LOT of explosions - you know all of this style. But I must admit. It is fun. Just pure mindless fun. Te battles are smooth, platforming is enjoyable, little riddles (Tomb Raider style) are simple, but nice. It is just a nice little stupid game. And I enjoyed it.

A Year Walk has a lot of jumpscares? :o From other reviews I thought it doesn’t. I’m so bad with jumpscares. >< Maybe I should reconsider putting the game out of won’t play category……

Aquilla

Well… A lot - 3 or 4, but you can beat this game in an hour so it’s jumpscare every 15 minutes. And I’m scaredy cat, so they were hard for me.

Oh noes, I’m also a scaredy cat. D: I guess I’ll avoid it for now. :o
