What a wonderful journey!
Skabma was one of the games I discovered here on gog and bought right on release day. On the one hand I was impressed by the story, on the other hand by the experience of Nordic myths and cultures. Specifically, this is about the Sámi people. About the story I would like to lose only a few words: Something strange threatens the valley. Disease afflicts the inhabitants. A boy is now given the task of finding four animal spirits and fighting the evil with them. Hints are given by a mysterious (extremely sympathetic) person who he meets again and again. I must say that the story captivated me from the beginning and was told very beautifully. If you like mythology, and Norse mythology at that, this is the book for you! Also, the world is very pretty to look at. As for the game, it can be said that it is a very relaxing (action) adventure game set in an open world that expands bit by bit as you learn new skills. However, you shouldn't expect role-playing and demanding battles. It is a relatively stress-free experience that can be played through in about 6 hours. The dialogues (all spoken in "native language", which I find very refreshing) are excellent and made me smile quite often. The gameplay is composed of exploring the world (finding the collectibles/side quests) and platforming elements. Battles play a very minor role. The credits suggest that a sequel is already being worked on and that the world of Skabma has more stories to offer. Which makes me very happy, because I will definitely buy the second part again on Day One. I can hightly recommend this game to everyone - especially to those who love mythical stories.
