What players say
In spite of the story, the game works and has some decent puzzles, so I'm going to recommend it. But BOY HOWDY is Artifex Mundi bad at mythology. This was the equivalent of telling me that Loki and Whisky Jack are the same person. I suppose you CAN mix Greco-Roman and northern European myth, but why on earth would you? The protagonist is also dumb as a rock, but that's to be expected.

Nice game when you are into this kind of easy puzzle games. Riddle wise I have seen it all before but there is a very good variety and nothing hard to block your progress. The story is simple and told in a rush, I guess no time for such things as we have to save the world... Achievements are plenty and easy to get. Good for a rainy afternoon.
I didn't enjoy this, but I couldn't really tell you why. It's a perfectly capable game and it does everything you expect a Mundi title to do, but it was lacking a fun factor that I can't quite pin down. The collectibles in this one are very well hidden and I missed several, but this might be the first time that I can't be bothered to go back and find them. I really just wanted this one to be over. For achievement...
