[b]BLACKTAIL is PERFECT[/b] It's a fast, action-adventure RPG where you play as witch, archer, girl Yaga who's questing through a beautiful world with very interesting characters. People who like the Far Cry series' game design can like this. -The only imperfection I know is there's no manual save slots. I accidentally progressed on a sorta evil quest when I was simply wanting to investigate something, and the game auto-saved there. I now have a fire-type deer Pokemon standing around for no reason. [b]BLACKTAIL is better[/b] than Tomb Raider too. I hate Lara Croft in the prequel trilogy. She's advertised as some poor survivalist, [b]BUT[/b] she murders DOZENS OF BEARS to craft a TINY BAG! [b]Lara Croft disgusts me.[/b] Yaga is TRULY RESOURCEFUL and only takes what she needs. At least that's how I choose to play this game. Also, I compared BLACKTAIL to Far Cry, but BLACKTAIL is MUCH better as there's zero wasteful time collecting nothing materials. All materials you gather are useful. Zero microtransactions in this game too. Focus is good. Ubisoft is awful.
Fun and simple exploration game with decent combat. Recommending because it is an indie studio, and they did a solid job.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Fairly solid game. Enjoyed it very much. have some minor gripes, but very solid. 7/10
amazing chill game
Blacktail is a fine game. It's clearly not the one you will reinstall from time to time, yet, it's a game that will make you live a story for about 8 hours (more or less, depends if you explore or not). It is quite a repetitive game since you'll basically do the same thing over and over : collect materials, craft arrows, shoot arrows at the ennemies, find materials, watch a cinematic, fight a boss, watch another cinematic... Yet it didn't bother me. It's not a game which has a story only because it needed it, the main point is the story, the gameplay after. And I must say, it's a great one. I would recommend it only if you play for the story. Otherwise, you might consider other games.
Boring Game
Blacktail has a rich slavic folklore which consists of many unusual creatures and stories. Also the game looks very pretty and is nice to look at and experience. Unfortunately the gameplay is not very fun, all you have to work with is bow with few arrow types and aroow shooting was done better and more enjoyable is tons of other games, it feels like slog. Exploration is tedious and after few hours I had no will to find new places and explore pretty big map - rewards for it are always the same (teeth) or none at all.
Not bad game, a bit messy at times but it gets some sympathy
A very nice surprise. Although labeled as an indie, I've found it to be vastly superior to the majority of AAA and "AAAA" games out there
Worked out of the box for Linux. Some fights were a little challenge but overall a great game. A young witch finding herself, armed with a bow and some spells. Great voice acting and story. Loved every second of it!
