Description


Smash, clobber and bash the murderous legends of Slavic mythology in this darkly funny action role-playing game that changes every time you play. Play as Ivan, a one-handed blacksmith with incredibly bad luck, who must take on the impossible tasks given to him by the tzar. All the while the mysterious witch, Baba Yaga, watches over Ivan's fate.



The world of Yaga is a world steeped in Slavic folklore and ancient Pagan beliefs. Featuring a head-bobbing Romanian hip-hop soundtrack from Subcarpați and striking, hand-drawn 2D artwork. Yaga is an authentic love letter to childhood fables from Romanian indie developer, Breadcrumbs Interactive.



  • Bludgeon the ancient monsters of Slavic folklore using a vast arsenal of hammers and tools forged by Ivan's own hands.
  • Your actions change Ivan's story, his reputation, and the upgrades he can choose.
  • Experiment in the deep forging system to make weapons like teleporting lightning hammers and hookshot pitchforks.
  • Explore the combinations of talismans, magic items, blessings, perks, and curses to fundamentally change how Ivan plays.
  • Multiple endings, multiple ways of solving encounters, procedural map, lots of characters to encounter, and hidden secrets mean Yaga is meant to be played over and over again.
  • Ivan's grandma just wants him to find a wife. Don't disappoint her!

Entertaining but ...

The idea of the game, the combat and story are interesting indeed but after finishing the game I felt that much of the potential was still not tapped. A good example is the economy, or a sad joke of it. It is based on a complete randomness and you cannot reliably obtain any more valuable gadgets or ores. One could of course pop in and out to the village to rattle the RNG but it is just boring. Essentially you need to live of the land so to say. The story in general is actually rather linear only with the expansion making providing for some mild diversity. The game introduces some interesting mechanics with luck, blessings and traits but the way it is done it is hard to see through and it is by far not intuitive. If you think there is some yagpedia you will be sorely disappointed. The online guides are also not common and rather poor. I also did not appreciate much the system of choices between the righteous, greedy, fool and aggressive. These have a major impact on the ending and if you are naive, all good tooshie as I am you will be robbed from, in my opinion, the best ending. Sad face... Anyway. The thing I enjoyed a lot was the combat. It is dynamic, diverse and sometimes really fast. Music is also well selected. Even if maps are somewhat simple I still did not reach the point where the combat would be just boring. For me and my limited patience it is a huge bonus. On top of that the ability to fiddle around the hammer properties just spices up the whole experience. Great job! On the bad side, the secondary tool/weapon is essentially hmm useless, too cumbersome to use, in my option. Finally, if you die you can be immediately reanimated but mostly in cost of gadgets and weapon ot just try again from the start. A nice toutch indeed. All in all a good fun to grab if at discounted price.

Enjoyable but...

I like this game, but I can't understand some choices of gameplay made by the devs, as: Hit -> short stun animation -> no recover -> multi-hits -> death loop -> pleasure

meh..

I was expecting something more into the romanian folklore but first one hour and a half were quite awkward. The english voice acting has nothing to do with the theme of the game. The romanian translation is quite funny and cool but it cannot be paired with romanian voice acting because it does not exist. The combat is basic and nothing to write home to your girlfriend about.. The story seems interesting but kindof thrown around. The graphics are very nice but sometimes too much stuff on the screen can make you tired. Overall.. nothing too special.. get it on sale only.
