The art style and music were wonderful and the music was just perfect, but it left me unsatisfied as it was way to short. Finished it in about an hour and a half ### 4/5 — Beautiful Music *2023-11-06, version 1.0.3* I found this to be a calming easy game. I dropped one star only because there was a lot of walking and no playing during the game. Other than that, loved i! ### 3/5 — Ah *2022-12-08, version 1.0.3* Welp cost money, decent game, a little too religious but good game in general ### 5/5 — Beautiful piece to play through *2021-07-24, version 1.0.3* This game establish scenery and the grandness of the beautiful Northern tales they are based off of. Please play with headphones since the music/audio sets a super cool atmosphere. ### 3/5 — Not for me *2021-07-12, version 1.0.3* The game is a quality production, attempting to engage you in its myths with puzzles. Unfortunately, these myths just don’t interest me. Try the first chapter for free and see if you want more. ### 5/5 — An artistic masterpiece *2020-12-30, version 1.0.3* I would view this less as a game, and more as an interactive storybook. It is super fun, and I worked highly suggest it. I have 2 main suggestions to those who play this: 1. Read the myths as you get them. This game is all about the story and mythology. 2. Play the game again as soon as you have finished it the first time. A second playthrough really helps you understand what is happening as you are playing. ### 4/5 — Woah *2020-11-14, version 1.0.3* It is a very good game and it provides some challenge, and thats great. But the game is WAY to short. I finished the game in half an hour! Other than that i like the game. ### 5/5 — Absolutely nothing to spite at. *2020-07-12, version 1.0.3* It is a great the only reason I didn’t buy the full game was that I have no money. 10/10 would recommend. ### 2/5 — Wierd *2020-07-09, version 1.0.3* Seems like a game about some sort of cult. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-07-08, version 1.0.3* Interesting great music graphics A great package 🙌🏽 ### 5/5 — DOCTOR *2020-05-24, version 1.0.3* I saw and greatly appreciate the TARDIS easter egg in the game, thank you developers and designers ### 5/5 — Absolutely stunning *2020-05-03, version 1.0.3* This is a hidden gem. Don’t doubt, you will enjoy every second of this. If you are into mythology, you’ll spend hours in this treasure. I can’t recommend enough, the game is awesome. ### 4/5 — Pretty Good *2020-04-16, version 1.0.3* Awesome art style and the music was beautiful. For £1.99 you don’t get hours of gameplay only a short play through, however what it lacks in length it makes up for with the beautiful art and music, well worth the money for the time and effort they must have put in creating this masterpiece. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-04-11, version 1.0.3* I’ve never knew a game with a different language,amazing graphics,true myths and a choir .the moose man is so good it’s better then all the other games I’ve played . ### 5/5 — Mooseman *2020-02-17, version 1.0.3* This was an Amazing game one of the best I’ve ever played well worth the money I enjoyed every second of it please make more games like this one ### 5/5 — it’s good *2020-02-16, version 1.0.3* don’t play stoned you will have a panic attack but it’s beautiful and really fun 5/5 would recommend ### 5/5 — Serene and interesting *2020-01-24, version 1.0.3* Not very challenging, but absolutely gorgeous! ### 2/5 — English Translation Broken❓Developer, Please Help⁉️ *2020-01-15, version 1.0.3* My two star rating might become five stars if the developer of this interesting game would either fix or explain how to activate the apparently broken english translation of every part of the game... To be clear, some parts were into English while others did not change into english. — Full disclosure: I only played the free intro, noticed that some myths did not translate into english and then I read two app reviews by others complaining about having experienced this issue in the full paid version. So, I decided to trust the reviewers — because I didn’t want to pay for the game and still miss out on the english translation. P.S. ( I’m using a 10.5” iPad Pro, running iOS 12.4.1 ) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t open *2023-12-11, version 1.0.3* Game does not start up at all. iPad Pro 12.9” running iPadOS 17.12. I’ve played this game on other platforms and would really like to have it on my iPad to play through when the feeling strikes! ### 1/5 — Waste of time! *2021-10-17, version 1.0.3* Deleted after 10 minutes of trying to get past the trees! Even the walkthroughs couldn’t help. All it seems to be is the guy walking and walking for miles in the the dark just picking up items! It was hurting my eyes with the lack of colour! So glad it was the free version I tried and I even deleted other Apps to make space for this! ### 1/5 — Boring *2019-12-16, version 1.0.3* With hardly any instructions at the beginning (don’t know if they appear later), and little choice of action this game left me confused, frustrated and bored!! Game deleted after 10 mins ### 1/5 — No *2019-12-12, version 1.0.3* No instructions on how to play. No help facility. Can’t even be bothered to persevere waste of 1.99 ### 1/5 — One star *2019-01-12, version 1.0.3* I have to buy it ### 1/5 — Clear rip off of Never Alone *2019-01-12, version 1.0.3* Just another developer exploiting a mystical spirituality that looks eerily similar to actual northern cultures. Everything about this is just a poor copy of the authentic work put into Never Alone. You could credit them at the very least. ### 1/5 — No *2019-01-12, version 1.0.3* No ### 1/5 — Story interesting, controls are awful *2018-06-23, version 1.0.3* Story interesting, controls are awful ### 1/5 — Pointless *2018-06-20, version 1.0.3* Total waste of time. No instructions, no objective, no hope. As the Cybermen would say... Delete, Delete, Delete! ### 1/5 — Scary *2018-06-19, version 1.0.3* So scary. I have played this game and It’s one of the worst I’ve ever played. Delete this game if you don’t want to have a heart attack ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — великолепный опыт! *2024-12-24, version 1.0.3* игра очень понравилась, благодарность хору пермского колледжа искусств и пермскому музею удивила и умилила! ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2023-11-09* This game looks amazing and has a great story in it. I really love the the way the animals are drawn. I swear there isn't a single part of this game that can't take your breath away. I wish I could rate it higher. ### 5/5 — Absolutely awesome *2022-12-22, version 1.0.3* This game deserves to be more, it has so much to do in it and is so mystical. I was interested in the character because he reminded me of the wendigo. The storyline of this game is tremendously addictive and I loved it. I would highly recommend this game to people that love myths and adventure. Please rate it five stars. It needs to be a bigger game, and to do that we need to get a higher rating and more players. (Can you please make an ad) ### 5/5 — An absolutely magical experience…🙂 *2022-10-29, version 1.0.3* What a truly beautiful game, so atmospheric, with such captivating music, what an amazing tale! A dive into the creators’ local Mythology and Archaeology as well. Well done all of you! 👏 ### 5/5 — Meditative Experience *2022-09-09, version 1.0.3* Though short and simple, I found the real draw of this game to be the calming yet intriguing gameplay & narrative experience - walking through the stories, with the musical accompaniment, and wanting to know what the next myth would reveal…definitely an opportunity for me to break from reality while diving into a healthy distraction. Would recommend - especially for those who value earphones and mindfulness. ### 5/5 — A great adventure *2022-06-12, version 1.0.3* The art is amazing, the puzzles are fun and not too difficult. It is a very short game, but definitely worth the price. Personally, I really appreciate the descriptions behind each animals and the drawings. ### 5/5 — Mysteriously immersive *2022-05-12, version 1.0.3* Loved this game! I enjoyed the slower pace and discovery of lore, and the puzzles were intriguing but not overly difficult so I never got frustrated. A very simple yet beautiful experience, I only wish it could have gone on for longer. ### 5/5 — Such a beautiful game *2021-11-30, version 1.0.3* One of those games you just get lost in how much the developers clearly loved their project. ### 5/5 — Beautiful and unique work of art *2021-10-27, version 1.0.3* The amosphere and setting in this game is trully amazing. A lot of love and passion went into its creation and you can feel it. it is not a typical adventure game but more of a fantastic journey to the land of myths and legends. i really apreciated all the references to the archeological artefacts you can find on your way. One of the elements that is trully magnificent is the music! this choral singing is trully wonderful. the pace is very slow which fits perfectly. ### 5/5 — Absolutely stunning. *2021-08-11, version 1.0.3* All the graphics were just spot on and just amazing --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
