Pros and cons of Year Walk Companion app for iPhone and iPad
Year Walk Companion app good for
Gives you the FULL experience....prepare to be creeped out..in a good way
This app tells about a few very interesting folklore characters from Scandinavia, the illustrations and descriptions are great. And its free!
Trust me, if you download Year Walk, you need to get this app. It will help you get the “better” ending (if you can call it that). It also provides backstory and mythology.
And it’s free!
Le jeu est en anglais, donc je continue dans la langue de Shakespeare.
This is my first app review, so I do mean what I write.
A surprising game with a plot based in Swedish mythology.
An amazing storyline that catches you up until the ending.
One of the best horror/dark games I played : it has this special ambiance that evolves slowly and transmits a very balanced twisted world.
The game is fully based on enigmas and mystery. It is also based on being lost in the woods. Even though in the beginning you might have the impression that the woods are easy to navigate, you will realize pretty soon that they are not that clear.
The game art is also really nice and the simplicity on the interactions is just delicious.
It is a game where you also need to think out of the box.
For me the best game I played on an iOS device.
Do I recommend it?
If you like myster, horror and puzzle games (or any combination of these elements), definitively YES!
This game is amazing Im mind blown by the ending and the bonus ending this game was just so hard to explain it had its horror moments just at the right times so you could focus on the story <3. Im really impressed that this was created for a iPod . This game is now for sure 1# on my favorite games list you guys really did a good job on the getting the myths just right this game should be worth more then 3$ with all the work and art styles put in it I hope I see some more games cool like this out.
The best iOS game I have played yet. Good luck playing it in a dark room...
Some bad moments
Not sure why, but I could download the main app but not the companion. It keeps failing on me. Frustrating because it appears theres something important in the app.
Perfect amount. Stylistic, creepy, musical, captivating.
Plus, replay value.
This game is good...it has jump scares but totally NOT worth 4 dollars. Maybe 99 cents. The game is also VERY short.
Eerie. Beautiful. Puzzling. Rich storytelling. Immersive. Smart. Highly intuitive.
To the developers: Thank You!
Cool, for those of you who are wondering what the password is; its
1894 you will get a journal you gotta read because its ascensial if you wanna understand the game
I LOVED this companion! It was so awesome reading this after completing the game and realizing there was more to the game after you read the companion! Great job, Simogo!
