Crow Country

Really refreshing game, doesn’t overstay its welcome. One or two puzzles were frustrating but they were optional.

De las mejores narrativas que he jugado en mucho tiempo: puzles ingeniosos, sistema de combate original y un OST que te pone los pelos de punta (en el buen sentido). En mi opinión no es un homenaje a los clásicos, es un juego que entra en su propio hueco en el canon actual del survival horror. Recomendadísimo.

Great throwback style game! It gives the feel of older survival games without the traditional frustrations that those games often bring. The map is tight and varied with nice interactivity and a great amount of details. The puzzles are small and simple, but just clever enough to stay engaging. The enemies are interesting though only moderately threatening. This is balanced by the character being squishy and only taking a few hits to die. The items and ammo are easily found, maybe a little too plentiful. You can turn up the difficulty which makes enemies more aggressive and items/ammo more rare. Finding a save room is a relief even though they are never too far away, which tells me they are well layed out. Finally the story, it's weird! You may think you know where it is going, you do not. I found it endearingly weird and winding, and a definite positive. This is a real treat of a game, easy recommend!

If you're like me and grew up on PS1 era survival horror games, you owe it to yourself to play Crow Country. It does have a few more modern game mechanics, like non-tank controls (on controller anyway), and more precise aim control (which both gives more freedom of control, but also can make tense sequences more stressful), but the gameplay is very classic survival horror in that you're exploring the areas looking for weapons, ammo, maps, save rooms, key items, and secrets while deciding whether to fight itnout or run from many monsters and encounters to conserve resources. The story is excellent, with a great deal of the story fleshed out in notes and environmental storytelling (even if I did figure out some twists by the time they were revealed), and the dialog contain plenty of great "in-jokes" and moments of appreciated comedic breaks from all the tension, while still delivering a great story. Overall an excellent modern take on classic surival horror and I can't wait to see what SFB Games does next!

I loved every minute of this, the soundtrack and overall vibe were great.

Another new personal favorite, weirdly felt nostalgic (think it was cause of the N64-like style), story was interesting and puzzles felt actually fair. Not enough crows though so more like a 9.99/10
