Stunning and a little eerie - The Mooseman Review

It's been a while since the last time I played a game that's so visually stunning that I just couldn't stop taking screenshots, which made me so happy when I found about The Mooseman.

(The art is so powerful I ran out of words to describe it.)
The game, espcailly the soundtrack and artstyle, is inspired by ancient myths of finno-ugric tribes. You will find yourself in a gloomy, cold and damp forest, walking alone and slowly to explore the world of spirits. On your journey you will unlock the myths, which is both fascinating and gives you the hint to solve the upcoming puzzles. BTW, the idea of switching world to have different views and obstacles remind me of Hue.

The gameplay is not perfect. There's no runnning option so you will have to walk slowly, even in a chase. I understand someone may think this is tedious, but rushing to finish all the puzzles will only damage your experience. Consider this an exhibit in the gallaery, or an illustration book of folktales. Just take some time to enjoy it.

You will need to pay for the entire game but trust me, it's worth it. I would recommend playing it in a bigger screen though.

If you like this game, you will probably like these too:
Gris: A beatutiful adventure game about a girl and her journey through sorrow. I love how there're almost no text. All emtions and stories are told by delicate drawings and colors.
Princess Mononoke: An animation movie about life, gods, spirits and human. You will immediatly recoginse the resemblence in the spirts of the forest between the two works.

Time for Adventure in the Spirit world!!
My Experience Honestly, this is a great casual single-player game to experience the story and feel how the story is told. Listening to the calm and relaxing music of the game while trying to figure out puzzles and seeing gods Pros/Cons + Great Story + Amazing Level Design + Nice music + Challenging Puzzles + the First level is free to play! - Not fun for those that don't like puzzle games - Can get slightly sluggish at times

Bramble: The Mountain King - A Beautiful Yet Unsettling Adventure Inspired By Nordic Folklore
Bramble: The Mountain King is a very atmospheric adventure game with some platforming, puzzle and action elements here and there set in a grim fantasy world inspired by Nordic folklore. You play as Olle, a young boy who embarks on a great, but dangerous adventure through the beautiful and sometimes unsettling environments of this world to rescue his sister from the clutches of fairytale monsters. It's really about the journey in this game, all the different scenarios you come across are very memorable, but sometimes really unsettling and scary. Eventhough I didn't like all the chapters equally, because some were more like horror scenarios than fantasy scenarios, I was never bored and I was captivated by this game the whole way through.
