It's a great game with a beautiful hand-crafted map. A lot of love went into this one. I especially like the triangulation mechanic and the momentum-based player control that is frustrating to suck at but satisfying to master. 8/10 would recommend.

Miasmata, or: To hell with the monster, I already fell down a slope and broke my neck. Miasmata is a fairly interesting mix between an open-world exploration game and a classical horror game. You play as a man stranded on an unexplored island; hoping to find various herbs and plants to cure the disease that is slowly killing you. Unfortunately, said island also happens to be home to a very large cat, which ideally would like to eat you before you get to leave, Ironically, this nondescript 'Beast' usually is the least of your worries. What should worry you is that every last of your moves carries momentum, and said momentum will more than often see your character slipping, running, and then falling heads-over-heels because trying to climb a nigh-vertical cliff face probably wasn't the brightest of ideas. To put it bluntly: Miasmata will be frustrating at first. And its peculiar movement system will take some getting-used-to. Once you do, however, you'll find yourself pushing back against your chair while you try to prevent your character from losing its footing. It's a weird king of category for a horror game to be sure, but Miasmata can proudly claim to be a hiking simulator from hell.

I played this game as a kid and wanted to relive some nostalgia, but the game still holds very well, not so much in terms of graphics but how fun, tense, and sometimes even scary. Happy to play it again.

It took me many tries to get the cartography aspect of the game right, but I did it. The game feels like an actual adventure through the jungle, and the environment, as well as the attention to detail kept me coming back to Eden for more. Strongly recommend playing.
