Impressions (cont.):

-too many sidequests (aka haunting cases)
-dialogue sections carry on for too long at times
-enemy variety quite small, making combat very repetitive very fast
-lots of backtracking needed for collectibles and fulfilling 100%-requirements

Overall rating: 7/10

A consistently solid gaming experience, without truly excelling in any particular aspect.

Impressions:

+ original story and setting in a videogame
+ player choices influence the story ending
+ great voice acting
+ beautiful open area design, although feels quite empty

How to climb a mountain. Jusant is a wonderful, heartfelt indie game of just the right length!

Impressions:

+ good story, told via gameplay and environmental storytelling (silent protagonist)
+ climbing mechanics very well implemented and forgiving enough to enable a relaxing gameplay experience

An important, in parts relatable story at its core - told in the most boring way possible!

Impressions:

+ really cool setup for an intriguing mystery
+ relatable characters brought to life by a great moment to moment script
+ chill soundtrack

Impressions (cont):

- didn’t like the art style - took away some of the grandiosity of the setting and story
- character arc quests felt disjointed and partially too obvious in their messaging

Overall rating: 7/10

Impressions (cont):

+ Gorgeous graphics and world, switching between the fantasy and sci-fi set-pieces
- Quite linear game that doesn’t offer much replay value (besides switching to the other character)
- A few noticeable plot holes exist

Overall rating: 9/10

Impressions:

+ Incredible co-op mechanics
+ Extremely creative and fun asymmetric gameplay, making time spent in game just fly by
