nice game and visuals, hope they make another similar game with more depth cause yay dark fantasy

I have to write this because I’m genuinely frustrated. Bramble: The Mountain King is, on its own, an excellent game — the atmosphere, visuals, and overall concept are fantastic — but unfortunately it is practically impossible to finish on the Steam Deck. Near the end of the game there is a level where a cutscene starts playing and then… you’re left with a black screen. The game freezes and you cannot continue. Unfortunately, I discovered this only after many hours of gameplay, when I ran directly into this bug myself. What’s worse, you can easily find many posts from other players reporting the exact same issue, yet it seems the developers are not paying any attention to it. Because of this, I strongly recommend avoiding the game if you plan to play it on the Steam Deck — you may end up very disappointed. Especially considering that the game costs over 120 PLN in Poland, and at that price you should be able to expect a fully working product. At this level, we should demand more — and at the very least, a game that can actually be completed.

This game reminds you of how hard life used to be. Parents told these stories to children for a reason. To keep them safe and to teach them bravery, and to not meddle in things they shouldn't. It's hard to put it to words other than it took me to a whole other world. I highly recommend this game, especially when it's on sale.

Beautiful game. Loved the story, graphics, and cinematography. Excellent work!

It's like little nightmares but better BUT only a bit better.. instead of the maw with the fatties you have folklore creatures and forest settings and that works great, graphically it's probably better than little nightmares and some stand out bits are the final boss and the row boat boss very clever and challenging. The sound is amazing and a very fitting soundtrack for our adventure and the narrator sounds like galadriel from lord of the rings. Only downside is it has the frustrating sections from little nightmares cheap deaths, one hit deaths and some frustrating jumps and chase segments to name a few get ready to die a lot. If you can get through that then you have some fun here. The story concludes well and there are some collectibles for a couple of playthrough's. Steam Deck verified... hmm that's debatable as there are plenty of levels that chug steam down to a choppy mess and it's basically on it's lowest settings. Most of the playthrough is serviceable but would recommend better hardware especially if your playing on a handheld.

Overall, this game was a really fun playthrough. The puzzles were unique and some kind of challenging, I found myself stuck at certain points. The bosses were really fun to fight and the story was thrilling! This is an amazing game!
