非常好玩

One of my Favourite Horror Games of all time

10/10 Good game

Qué juego tan bueno. Es como un Resident Evil fácil xd. La primera vez que uno lo juega puede llegar a tardar unas 4 horas, pero ya sabiendo qué hay qué hacer el tiempo se reduce. Aún así, se disfruta bastante cada rejugada.

Acho que eu vi um corvo

Crow Country is everything I've wanted in a survival horror game. The OST is phenomenal and probably one of my favorites out of any game I've ever played; and the story while at first seems disconjointed slowly unravels like a ball of yarn into something that made me truly sit and think on it in a while for a video game ending. The gameplay is simple to understand with an easy UI but feels overall feels clunky at times with vague instructions and a camera I was fighting against half the time. The game is short at around 8ish hours for a blind playthrough which I loved, the pacing really works for it's favor keeping a steady feeling throughout. The puzzles, like the story, slowly unravels while you play and work in a domino type effect - unlocking more the longer you go on. By the end I had the components I needed to solve the puzzles I couldn't earlier without feeling like I had hit a wall. Some of the puzzles though were a bit counterproductive and I felt like a few had weird difficulty spikes which took me out of the game, the difficulty scales alongside you the more you progress but few keystone puzzles seemed wildly more complex or easier than they should've been. The combat was also a little hit or miss with me, I found the enemies took an absurd amount of bullets whether I was close or not. Near the end I found it a bit better to deal with post all the upgrades, but it still felt strangely unbalanced and clunky. The camera when aiming is different than the main camera following you around all game, and even near the end I couldn't fully understand how it worked as it spun me towards a wall while fighting the final boss. Complaints aside, I did love Crow Country and it's truly a unique and very special game. The graphics, the lovable jank, the story, the characters, the atmosphere, it's all there. There's a lot to enjoy, and a fair amount to criticize but in the end I had an amazing time playing it. Despite it's heavy inspiration from PS1 survival horror games and it's love letter to the original Resident Evil, I think Crow Country firmly stands on it's own as I've never found another game that feels quite like this.
