Another gamepass win. Didn't hear or know anything about this game prior to the gamepass drop, but that trailer was everything I needed to see to ensure my interest. I've never played or heard of a game that depicts these old dark fables based off Swedish mythologies, and this game just nails the premise perfectly. The game runs so cinematically even though you basically are in control the entire time of the character. Scenes flow so well with each other, telling a story of a boy who wakes up to his sister missing, so he journeys through the dark and dangerous woods to find her. With plenty of puzzles to solve, fantasy creatures to discover such as gnomes and a stone giant, and beasts to either run from or kill such as zombies and a troll , this is one adventure that I will not forget. After a nearly 12 hour playthrough with all achievements unlocked (except the almost impossible "beat the entire game without dying once" achievement), I ended my journey. Highly recommended for people who appreciate dark and artistic fantasy games.
