GRAPPIN

GRAPPIN is an amazing game that strikes the perfect balance between relaxing exploration and challenging platforming. I went through it twice, collecting all the relics, and it was such a rewarding experience. The game allows you to take your time in a peaceful world, while also providing challenging sections that require you to master the mechanics to reach certain places. The graphics are absolutely stunning, and it’s clear a lot of care went into creating the environment. I do wish I had a better graphics card to truly appreciate the beauty of the game in its full glory, but even so, the visuals are top-notch. I’m also hoping for a console release in the future to make it more accessible to others. The ending of the game is fantastic—there’s a nice twist that explains a lot, leaving you with a satisfying sense of completion. Overall, I highly recommend GRAPPIN to anyone looking for a chill yet challenging game with incredible graphics and a solid story. It’s definitely a game worth experiencing!

Grappin est un petit jeu indé français qui m’a clairement surpris. Le principe est simple : explorer, grimper et avancer grâce à un grappin, tout en comprenant petit à petit comment le monde fonctionne. Et franchement, ça marche bien. La prise en main est progressive, le grappin devient vite naturel à utiliser, et on se retrouve à chercher des chemins, créer des raccourcis et tester des idées. Le jeu te laisse réfléchir par toi-même, sans trop te prendre par la main, et c’est vraiment agréable. Une fois le tuto passé, on sent que le jeu commence vraiment. Ce n’est pas parfait, certains choix peuvent frustrer un peu, mais l’expérience reste très sympa si tu aimes les jeux de plateforme/exploration calmes, où le plaisir vient surtout de la progression et de la découverte. Points positifs : - Le grappin est fun et bien intégré - Le level design pousse à réfléchir et explorer - Projet indé français à soutenir Points négatifs : - Quelques murs invisibles frustrants - Certains passages un peu flous - Peut ne pas plaire si tu veux de l’action non-stop En bref, si tu aimes prendre ton temps, tester et comprendre un jeu par toi-même, Grappin vaut clairement le coup. J’ai aussi fait une vidéo gameplay/avis sur ma chaîne YouTube pour ceux qui veulent voir le jeu en action. https://youtu.be/cDtD7anyFAM

Muy bonito juego relajante para desconectar el cerebro aunq debo decir q la parte mas aburrida es la ciudad antigua porq te quitan el gancho casi la mayor parte de ese nivel y llega a quitarle la gracia al juego pero para concluir vale la pena comprar cuando este en rebajas y el final verdadero vale la pena verlo por un nivel secreto muy bueno

-Un jeu plutôt sympa qui en vaut le détour !

This game was beautiful and really fun, but why did it turn into a parkour game instead of focusing on grappling? That kind of lost me.

From the beginning, i was "hooked" with the art style and the beautiful soundtrack by Benoit Malis, but it's the core gameplay with the grappling hook that really stood from the rest. Grappin is a wonderful 3D action-platformer that made me smile a lot of times. It is bold, it is challenging sometimes, and above all it has a great soul. It is made by a single dev, so yes, it has a rather "short" lifespan if this kind of parameter matters to you (5 to 10 hours to complete, it depends on whether you want to explore everything to find all the relics), but i always wanted more and never less, and that's usually the sign of a great game. It should be noted that big names of the industry such as James Turner (graphic designer and art director of Pokémon games and on The Plucky Squire) and Takaya Imamura, (designer and illustrator on F-Zero, StarFox and Majora's Mask) have contributed to certain parts of the game. I highly recommend Grappin, and I would like to play more games as daring and enjoyable as this one !
