Game Review: Munin [quote=Wendrex] Munin, developed by Gojira, is a puzzle platformer that has captured the attention of many players since its release. With a unique approach and polished execution, Munin stands out for offering an immersive and challenging gameplay experience. Here is a detailed analysis of what makes this game so special. Storyline and Setting Munin is inspired by the rich Norse mythology, presenting the story of the raven Munin, one of Odin's companions. After being transformed and separated from his brother Hugin, Munin must explore a series of magical worlds to regain his original form and reunite with his brother. The storyline, steeped in Norse legends, creates a fascinating backdrop for the player's adventure. Positive aspects: Engaging narrative: The story based on Norse mythology is engaging and provides a rich and interesting context for the game's puzzles and challenges. Diverse Environments: Each world that Munin explores is visually distinct and immersive, keeping the experience fresh and exciting throughout the game. Gameplay and Mechanics Munin’s gameplay is a unique combination of platforming and puzzle-solving. The game centers around the level rotation mechanic, where players must rotate the world around Munin to create paths and overcome obstacles. This innovative mechanic provides a constant and rewarding challenge. Pros: Mechanical Innovation: The world rotation is a creative idea that adds a layer of complexity and originality to the puzzle genre, challenging players to think in new ways. Puzzle Design: The puzzles are well-designed, striking a balance between difficulty and accessibility. They are challenging but not overly frustrating, providing a sense of accomplishment upon solving them. Gradual Progression: The game introduces new elements and mechanics gradually, allowing players to adapt and improve their skills as they progress. Graphics and Music Munin features a charming graphic style, with visuals reminiscent of storybook illustrations and mythology. The art is rich in detail and contributes to the game's magical atmosphere. The soundtrack complements the experience with compositions that help create an immersive and engaging environment. Positive aspects: Visual Aesthetics: The art design is visually appealing, with a vibrant color palette and careful detailing of the environments, which help transport players to the game's Nordic world. Atmospheric Soundtrack: The music is well-crafted and fits perfectly with the game's tone, adding depth and emotion to the overall experience. Length and Replayability Munin is a relatively short game, with an approximate duration of 4 to 6 hours to complete, depending on the player's skills. However, the challenging nature of the puzzles and the desire to improve performance encourage replayability. Pros: Adequate length: The gameplay time is ideal for a compact and rewarding experience, without dragging on unnecessarily. Re-engaging challenges: The difficulty of the puzzles and the search for more efficient solutions provide an incentive to revisit levels and improve performance. Conclusion Munin, developed by Gojira, is a work of creativity and innovation in the puzzle-platformer genre. With a unique level rotation mechanic, an engaging narrative based on Norse mythology, and a charming visual design, the game provides a memorable and entertaining experience. If you are a fan of clever challenges and rich aesthetics, Munin is an excellent choice that is worth exploring. I hope this review helps highlight what makes Munin special and why it deserves players' attention!

Munin is a beautiful game that takes place in the worlds of Norse mythology. You have to unlock paths in each level by turning blocks and also move objects to collect feathers. Every world begins simply, but the levels get harder and harder and take time to master.

A nice puzzle game that makes you use your "gray matter". however these cases are few, even if the levels are well structured for increasing difficulty and types of challenges. I would add the ability to select the specific level and not just the entire chapter because it's boring to repeat the entire chapter every time.
