Fast Review! - Year Walk

in #gaming7 years ago

Year Walk is a graphic adventure title with a puzzle different from what we are used to. Published in 2014 by the Simogo studio, the game is designed for mobile devices so the PC experience is a little bit rare.

Something that is surprising is how short Year Walk is that you can spend in less than 20 minutes. Sure, it's like that if you leave out the interesting story. A history of love, past, present and future all orbiting around the Scandinavian mythology of which the video game has a vast encyclopedia on the subject.

This title makes an interesting mix between 2D and 3D. The perspective is first person and is played with the keyboard and mouse. The displacement is lateral and in certain ways forward and backward, the mouse allows us to interact with the world.

Year Walk is full of puzzles that go from the simplest to the most difficult, most of them scramble exploring the forest where we can get many symbols that we must write down to use later. It is possible to get lost in Year Walk but calm, in the menu the game offers us advice that helps and guide us to follow the right path.

The animation is a bit simple but well achieved where the dark artistic style stands out. To this is added a magnificent soundtrack composed by Daniel Olsén. I recommend playing Year Walk in the dark with headphones to increase the gaming experience.

Year Walk is a magnificent work of art that deserves to be played. I think the duration of the game is right, enough time to tell the story. The story is well presented and the conclusion can be surprising. The encyclopedia is very complete and we can learn something new from it. I recommend Year Walk and if you want to buy it wait for a discount or a bundle to get it, you will not regret.

Its price on Steam is $ 5.99. I think a little bit high to be so short, but it's ok.
