Jotun offers the exploration and storytelling of Bastion, and combines it with the epic battles of Shadow of the Colossus. What’s not to like?

Beautiful animation and an authentic Nordic feel enhance an already impressively distinct 2D action adventure.

Great story, gameplay, art and bosses.

What a nice game. Great gameplay, beautiful art. Replayable, you wont get bored having this game in your library. Heads up for the bosses, theres a learning curve for those fights, but you will enjoy the challenge.

Nice but a bit clunky

The presentation is pretty sweet and it showcased folklore, although the gameplay could feel rough at times.

I don't get it

I did not even find some sort of beginning in this game. At some time I saw a hint like "pause game to view the map", but there was not pause key in the options. I did not find a map. I did not find an enemy to smash the axe into. The pictures are quite nice, but I don't need fancy graphics to like a game. What I was missing are some pointers to find anything interesting.
