Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“This is worst game I have encountered during the last two years. Both the grahpics and atomsphere are to some extent attractive, but there is literally no Gameplay at all... The plot is cliche, empty and rather approching to stuipidty…”
“Game is actual hot garbage. Just a fetch quest game with no directional emphasis. Kind of scary when the wolf is on your ass, but other than that, it's just awful.”
