Mediocre

The game is middle of the road in difficulty. Some of the challenge comes from being obtuse and some of the challenge comes from decent mechanics. The manual that you slowly unlock being filled with foreign symbols and expecting you to parse minimal explanations is not something I find interesting or fulfilling. Given a limited supply of consumable items and not knowing what they do means I'm not inclined to use them after I lit myself on fire and died. On a related note not having mechanics explained means that you might fail to learn some necessary and core mechanic and repeatedly die until you quit the game. YOU HAVE TO DODGE ROLL TO PUT OUT FIRE, WATER WON'T DO IT. LMAO So while I have enjoyed many aspects of the game so far I also have found numerous increasingly frustrating reasons to not play the game anymore and might not ever play it again. I expect more garbage in an otherwise enjoyable atmospheric throwback to Links Awakening and the like.

A very special experience

If you love exploration, puzzles, attention to detail, figuring things out for yourself, and having a huge void left in your life once the game is finished... then TUNIC is for you. It's a game best gone into completely blind. So all I will say is this game hinges on revelation building upon revelation that will delight and awe. The only downside is combat can be a little frustrating at times. Not in a "git gud" way (though it does have that aspect as well), but that the combat isn't as polished as other indies like Hollow Knight or Death's Door. So don't go in expecting stellar combat. Wonderful soundtrack and gorgeous visuals too. The overall level of polish makes TUNIC a real gem. I can't recommend it enough.

Amazing game

I rarely write reviews for purchases, so writing this means this game deserves it. Tunic seems initially like a game for pre-teens since has a slightly cartoon-ish feel to it, but don't let it fool you. It's difficult -but in a good way. It won't coddle you and hold your hand on where to go. You must figure it out with very limited hints. The graphics are gorgeous for the genre, music is very mesmerizing, and gameplay is old school nintendo-like-challenging. Can't recommend this game enough.

What it actually felt like to play Zelda

This is what it actually felt like to play The Legend of Zelda on the NES, or the A Link to the Past on the SNES back in the day. You felt a bit in over your head, you didn't understand everything, puzzles could be vague, there were secrets everywhere. You have maps, you collect an in-game instruction booklet (important!!), you have a sword, a shield, a grappling hook, a magic wand, bombs... even some of the "darker aspects" from A Link to the Past is here... sort of. It's very cool and very nostalgic. An open love letter to games gone by. I did however perhaps think that some of the puzzles were a bit hard, required too much leg work and didn't have enough pay off. When a puzzle stumps you for +20 min and you have to go to google that does take you out of the game, it does break the flow. It was like that in the old days too, you had to ask friends and read Nintendo Power to get all the clues right. It's very nostalgic but I'm not sure this is something to strive for in modern game design? I recently played Death's Door, another fantastic game, and while it isn't as nostalgic is flows much better. The puzzles are much easier and can nearly always be solved with what you see on the screen in front of you. Perhaps somewhere in the middle would be best? I'd love to see a Tunic 2, but I do think the difficulty and vagueness of some of the puzzles can be scaled back a bit. Especially when the reward for these difficult puzzles isn't all that high. For instance you locate 20 of something very hard to get, and solve a VERY hard riddle in the instruction booklet, and the reward is something you already have.. it's an important piece overall but it's something you already have. After +10h of puzzle solving I think you should expect more. Still, considering the very small team this game is still absolutely extraordinary and I had a blast with it. 100% recommend if you want a nostalgia trip, or want to experience what gaming on the NES and SNES actually felt like.
