South of Midnight

Good story, characters, environments and action.

A great action adventure game with solid platforming. The art sytle and music blend perfectly to tell a compelling narrative. The combat gets to become quite fun when you unlock all the abilities. The game is a little on the short side beating after 11 hours, but is still enjoyable.

The story is fun and mysterious. The music is beautiful!

Estilo de arte destacable junto a una banda sonora adaptativa de manera increiblemente inmersiva, una historia que no es dificil de seguir el "hilo". Juego ideal para jugadores casuales. Buena optimizacion

Playing this game because of the recent news with Xbox. I remember when this game got announced, it was one of the most interesting, cool-looking things during that showcase, and it did not disappoint. This game is gorgeous and will age beautifully. What will not age beautifully is the gameplay; even when this first launched, this was dated. The combat, exploration, skill tree, and movement are all subpar, and that sentiment is even more so true for combat. This game is very story-focused, but basically everything that leads up to the main story beats is: do 4 combat arenas, run away from basic spooky big bad, and maybe or maybe not (depending on the creature) get into a final boss fight with them. The boss fights themselves are fun (besides the final boss), incredibly basic but with cool designs and REALLY amazing music that more than make up for the shortcomings of the mechanics themselves. Now, as for the story, I have to say the main plot did not connect with me at ALL. I did not care for Hazel or her mom, which is crazy for how bad the game wants you to care about them. However, I must add that the individual smaller stories of all these cool folklore creatures are so cool and always so interesting, and those little stories are clearly where the devs put in most of the work, because not one of those stories sucked. TL;DR: Gameplay is not great, visuals are amazing, main storyline sucks but makes up for it with the creature lore. Definitely recommend trying this game out as long as you can handle the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ gameplay loop, and I definitely don't think this studio deserves to get shut down.

this game was something very good story in my opion
