South of Midnight

This is a game I thoroughly recommend for those who appreciate great storytelling, and creative art style. The combat mechanics are a bit simplistic and some of the traversal elements are not that good, which is a bummer, but the story is so good, the acting is so fantastic, the music so excellent, the animation so imaginative and the art style and level design so creative and beautiful that I was willing to ignore the less rewarding elements of the game. It is not a very long adventure, and each chapter hits the sweet spot for someone who can not devote hours at a time to advance the story in a game. The story is a beautiful dark fantasy based somewhere in Louisiana where folk stories are mixed each chapter to create new beautiful settings and objectives. If you enjoy great storytelling and beautiful art you won't be dissapointed.

Wow. Such a stunning game, the visuals had me floored at every turn. Having lived in New Orleans, seeing the Louisiana culture and atmosphere brought larger than life and in beautiful detail was really incredible. The lore is rich and the stories are touching, this was an instant favorite, I loved every moment.

I got this game because of such great reviews, so I'm adding mine. The story was so unique, and I love how they used often-overlooked folklore and mythology from the Southern U.S. The portrayals of the rural south were beautiful and empathetic; absolutely gut wrenching stories told with a compelling soundtrack. Now that I've finished the game I want to go back and listen to all the tracks. The art and style was fantastic, unlike most other games I've seen. I usually play casually and in story-mode, so all the options to keep it low-stress and continue the story were very helpful in making my experience enjoyable. I've already been telling people about this game, these tales are going to stick with me for a long time.

Прошёл игру на втором свиче и мне понравилось. Это хорошая и достойная игра, а еще тут фантастический визуал и звук, голоса. И тут узнаётся, что студию закрывают, жалко. Они этого не заслужили!

In the sea of sterile, creatively bankrupt, mass-produced 10-A-slop, this almost feels like a gulp of fresh air. The environments are gorgeous and oozing with style, the characters - compelling, the music - awesome, the story - surprisingly good, even if a bit cliché at times. Hell, even the main antagonist's motivation is relatable. What's lacking is the actual gameplay: platforming is nothing to write home about, the upgrades are there just to be there and don't allow for any "builds", the combat is boring and weirdly unimaginative. All in all, it should have been a visual novel, but it's still a recommendation from me.
