Love this game a lot, it has a touching story, a variety of puzzles, a lot of exploring and beautiful art. Really enjoyed my time with it.

I very much enjoyed playing every moment of this game. The story is enchanting and with the art style I was quickly wrapped up into the world of the characters. Some of the animals were beautifully made! There were only a couple of times I felt stuck regarding the puzzles, but in hindsight the answers were logical I had just missed something obvious. I enjoyed wondering around the various map areas exploring. I found there were just enough locations to make it fun, but not overwheleming. I found the gameplay to be smooth, no issues/bugs. It was worth every penny I paid, and I can see myself replaying the game. I did not find all of the items and get all of the badges for my first run-through, so there is plenty of replay value too. I 10/10 recommend this game!

If you enjoy a point and click adventure, this one has a nice balance to the puzzles and a fun storyline.

I don't want to be hard on this game because it seems like the designer really cared about it, but I was quickly and thoroughly disappointed. I couldn't make it more than an hour into it. The writing is broadly bad and feels appropriate for young teens. The story is quickly very dramatic and sentimental without giving us time to connect with and care about the characters. The game mechanics generally appear to exist for the sake of having mechanics and feel tedious and padded. They went with anime/lego reaction voicing that quickly got annoying and occasionally didn't match what was happening. The art, sound and general atmosphere meet expectations, but the writing is just too bad and mechanics meaningless. It compares very unfavorably to a game like Night in the Woods.

The story is beautiful I loved Scandinavian mythology which I didn't was very knowledgeable. Has charming characters but above all else, it has stunning scenarios that look like a movie frame, this was the part I enjoyed the most, I felt like I was in a movie, in fact, I took a lot of screenshots. Puzzles are okay some of them aren't that obvious but they are challenging enough. Music is a rather Celtic style and can be uplifting or mysterious according to the place, well suited for each level. I won't give it a five-star because I played on my Mac OS with a Wacom tablet and the controls were hell. I couldn't mix things properly, neither pick them from the inventory and drag them because it didn't recognize the command most of the times, which caused me to look often walkthrough videos because I thought I was missing something, but no, It was just the controls weren't responding well. And well that's really FRUSTRATING. Although some drag-drop actions took me several minutes I loved the game so much to be patient for the game controls to respond properly. Overall advice: don't play it with a Wacom Tablet. Thus I would give it 4-star punctuation.
