June 2024

The mechanic for this game was fresh and interesting. The game itself felt short - I was disappointed at what felt like the narrative cutting off in the middle in a way seemed set up to sell DLC. I enjoyed the game, however, and would play more if it were available! There were some bugs - especially with being able to pick up interactable objects.

This game features REALLY unique combat system. What do you get when you mix action and turn-based combat? RTwP is the wrong answer - always has been! THIS game shows the proper way to do it. You can dodge, parry, lunge, attack and counter-attack, use various magic tricks and items to your advantage. It feels a lot like a description of sword combat in books, a blow-by-blow account of fight between two master fencers. This system would fit The Witcher wonderfully, for example. The rest of the game is... Well, less interesting. The world is Viking-themed, the plot is MacGuffin hunt, and the characters attempt a bit of drama, but never succeed. However, it's easy to look beyond all that, and slightly unpolished UI, too, just for the innovative and interesting combat mechanic alone. I wish someone would copy that mechanic in a bigger-budget game - it certainly deserves to take its place among standard approaches to combat in video games.

Nice little turn-based (kind of - its done in heartbeats with each action taking a number of beats) strategy game - but it all works with the unique time manipulation system that's lets you rewind and forward time along you heartbeat track so that you can pick that perfect point to dodge the incoming arrows and chuck a fireball at the fuel can they're stood next too whilst your melee guy picks the time to block the swing of his enemy and then thump/stab him one. There's 4 main characters and you play Kipuna - the leading lady who is collecting magic shards that each give new powers along with 1 of the 3 companions Tipo (Blacksmith with a big hammer), Lemichen (Rogue with a Bow) or The healer who has a few spells and basic melee. The story is fairly basic but played nicely with a few Finnish lore bits thrown in for flavour. Unfortunately the story ends in such a manner it suggests there was a DLC or Sequel planned - but i know the studio hit trouble during its second game which is now in early access with just a few of the staff doing it in there own time now which is a shame as this was a really nice start to a series of games in the same world. Its not overly long - but will keep you occupied for a few hours and stops to combat going stale with some puzzle based levels.

As others have said, this isn't so much an RPG as a linear story that's more like a strategic, turn-based, puzzler. As you move through the game the main character gains more abilities to make battles feasible and support the secondary character. The secondary characters generally level up their existing skills. You don't get to choose who goes on each quest, it's the main character and a secondary character that helps the story-line. At no point did I feel under-classed or unable to proceed, but I also felt challenged throughout. Though they threw in one helper in the final battle that made it pretty simple. I definitely enjoyed by 20ish hours, and only encountered one major bug where a character got stuck in a house behind a locked door and I had to restart the level. Definitely a fund game and worth picking up. Just don't think it's open world or that there are any decisions to be made. It's just a fun story with some interesting characters and tricks to figure out how to get through battles.

Finished it, and loved it. the concept is great. i had so much fun setting up the perfect scenarios without a scratch on me. i led a troll into a room of enemies and buffed the heck out of it, and let the game do the work for me. there are bugs and some missed opportunities with mechanics but a blast all the same. some thing i wish were fixed are the movement tracks. they bug out and had me retracing steps. i ran into A LOT of obtainable object that just didn't let me collect them. missed out on a lot of grenade boxes. the echo ability for the protagonist leads the enemies to where the character is instead of where the noise is supposed to lead them. that was disappointing to find was broken. The time to utilize the prone damaging ability is clunky. some things i wished to see in the game, a recorded replay of the level you just completed. you essentially choreograph the whole dance and it would be extremely cool to watch it in it's glory. a pause button to stop the trance bar from passing a certain point. Kipuna is the protagonist and really only buffs the other characters. she is equipped with a lot of tools and not so much satisfying damaging abilities. I WANT MORE TOPI!!
