Fatum Betula is a very small game, but due to its multiple variations of how to do things it feels much larger. This is something I enjoyed about it, as it made the exploration feel worthwhile and I felt like I always discovered new things in each accessible area. It's very much a moment of "You feel like you know a whole area by heart? Wrong, you haven't found this particular thing yet!" which feels rewarding in its own way. There's a story. No, it's more a concept that the game builds upon. You have a tree (the birch), you choose its fate/future/whatever you want to call it. How? That's what the 10 multiple endings are there for. Each ending explores a subject, while you interact with the surrounding game world and its characters that you meet. I don't want to spoil too much, but it's topics such as existentialism, generational trauma and similar which themselves are all up for various interpretations. There are no enemies in this game. You cannot, by typical game means, die or get a game over screen. Your actions are yours only, and depending on those actions you are destined for one of the endings. I heavily recommend this game to anyone into horror puzzle games.

This small little game rules. The little commentary hidden in the game is really cool too! This is one of the few games that motivates me to make my own game.

I enjoyed it. The price-tag is more than fair. The visuals and atmosphere is amazing. Spooky yet funny. I am a very existential person so a lot of the ideas within this game resonated with me, the puzzle aspects were fun enough, and finding that I overlooked something was very satisfying to find, as it opened up even more possibilities. I would've liked a little bit more though, some more character-interactions, a few more areas. But what we got is already pretty good, I'm excited to see what this dev does in the future!

Thank you to Sophie who recommended this game after saying that my short story collection reminded her of it, which now playing the game I have realised how much of a huge compliment that is :) Such a gem of a game. The atmosphere is so thick and lulling, completely serene yet uncanny. Atmosphere, feel and being able to get sucked into the world is what I adore most about games and Fatum Betula achieves that wonderfully. My only regret is after a while I became caught up in getting endings and feel I did not take in as much of the game in as I would’ve liked to, but that’s a personal problem in wanting to consume games that really tickles my brain right. So yes, play the game blindly and explore for much longer than I did is my suggestion. I’m not going to go on here as not to spoil as much as I’d love to word vomit about every detail- but I ADORE games like this and I’m so happy I played it. BELOW IS A MILD SPOILER My one and only direct criticism is the file editing achievement. Please. Grandpa nearly had a heart attack trying to get through even the simplest technological mumbo jumbo. I’m sure there’s other grandpa-heads who feel the same- I’m trying to keep this lighthearted but it really REALLY irritated me. Maybe I am in a small percentage who has very low technology-knowledge but still… damn. If my review sounds groggy it was because of that achievement. To not end on a frustrated note, I HIGHLY recommend the game, I cannot put into words how nauseatingly beautiful it is. If you were one of those kids who used to mix shampoo and other bathroom items into potions, this is the game for you.
