Tunic is a very unique experience, that almost felt like two different games packed together. The first game is a loose adventure game, that lets you figure out everything on your own and has some really satisfying exploration and combat. The manual system is great as well. On top of a wonderful atmospheric soundtrack and a memorable visual style, it's a great game.

The second is a complex puzzle game that requires a lot more brain power than I have to offer. There were certainly moments of this section I was able to solve, although to see the true ending required an unfortunate amount of looking stuff up. Through this and Obra Dinn I've learned that cryptic games that require scouring a lot of information aren't exactly my thing, even if I can appreciate them.

It was a smart call to put the cryptic stuff after being able to get an ending, since dumb idiots like myself can at least get some closure. Anyways, cool game.
