This is a hidden gem if you truly want to get a first hand experience of the subtle scandinavian emotion vemod.. In case you didn't know, vemod describes a tranquil atmosphere of longing and sorrow over something one feels has disappeared and been lost, like a melancholic and mournful state filled with tender yearning. Growing up in a rural part of Sweden this game truly found a way to burrow itself inside and tender up a heart hardened by loot boxes and live services of today.. Unravel follows a little yarnie traversing rustic landscapes searching for memories of what once was. It is a beautiful little puzzle platformer where your resource is yarn and you use it to swing, drag and bungee yourself through a modest landscape filled with various obstacles. The gameplay is simple yet rewarding and during my playthrough I never encountered anything that took me away from the reverie. The game really nails the atmosphere and the environments are really evoking memories of my own childhood, which in a way is a bit spooky.. The pure coziness of the Scandinavian cottage core hub mixed with the various landscapes makes for a varied journey while never getting over the edge on nostalgia. So far so good! But I have not even mentioned the music yet. This soundtrack is magnificent, and even if you never play the game look up the soundtrack on a random streaming service. It perfectly encapsulates the haunting beauty that the game's story slowly reveals and to this day this is a soundtrack I recommend to anyone wanting to hear the soul Swedish folk music. In the end this is a great game and one that I recommend with all my heart. The only caveat is that it is tied to the horrendous EA-platform, but if you can tolerate that, this is a true treasure.

Unravel was such a surprising delight! The visuals were breathtaking, and the simple yet meaningful story touched my heart, I found myself completely drawn into Yarny's world. It was refreshing to play something that felt more like an interactive journey than just a game. :) Btw I bought the game on sale for €3.99, but to be honest I wouldn't have minded buying it at full price. It's worth it for me.

I loved this game. It was so quaint. Swinging from branch to branch is so fluid and fun, and the puzzles are pretty easy. If you want to get all the achievements, then it's not quite so easy, but not a tearing-your-hair out experience either! I really enjoyed 100%ing this game. One quite big reason to not get this game, however, is that in low lighting parts of levels, the game can get unplayably laggy and the screen will flicker. I have a 1660Ti so I'm certain my GPU isn't the issue here. I've found that a way to ease it is to tab out for two minutes and then it becomes playable again. Oddly, I only got the issue towards the end of the game, but had it in earlier chapters when I later returned to them. The game is very cheap, especially on sales, so despite this (quite major) gripe, I'd definitely recommend this game. Perhaps you won't have the same issue I did.

Really fun and gorgeous platformer that takes you on an emotional journey. Nothing overly sad, just an illustration of the ups and downs of life, including funny moments. You play as a caricature made of sewing thread that sort of looks like a humanoid-koala as he collects lost threaded-badges that represent memories or certain events of the lives of one or more of the humans that occupy that house. The realism of the graphics and physics of the world is motivating and rewarding for exploring and solving each puzzle. If this game has ended up in your backlog, make sure you get around to it.
