Free on the Epic Store (it was already given for free). Beautiful game with not very interesting gameplay. If you are interested in Norse mythology, then there's no reason to at least try it.

Jotun is free via Epic Store. Very recommended if you are keen on Norse mythology and hand-drawn graphics.

I file like the enemies are more and more cheap as you advance, culminating with the final one, who has multiple next to undogable attacks that take more than a quarter of my life.

The gameplay is still yet to grow on me, but the visuals, audio and mythical references got me hooked. Ratatoskr going up and down Yggdrasil is just too charming to resist.

The hand-painted visuals are gorgeous, I love the icelandic narration and all the "cameos" of Nordic gods.
The combat is kind of janky, but for now it works.

Enjoying this immensely. I don’t know why I slept on Jotun for as long as I have. I’ve owned a copy on Steam for a while, and even played a bit of the beginning but dropped it for some reason. Now that I picked it up for Switch and am a couple Jotun in, I’m loving it.

It's not even all that interesting, if you can manage to eke out some sort of plot after hours of wandering around aimlessly swinging an axe. I really wanted to like this, but ugh, a slog, and not even an interesting slog at that. That being said, I'm still curious to their other title on Steam and will pick it up in the future. I'm glad there are people out there who enjoyed this title, it just was not for me at all. Beautiful though. I'll give it that much.

I've completed two of the areas (three if you count the starting zone) and I'm enjoying it. The combat is a little tactical, and so far there haven't been useless hordes of enemies. The combat seems meaningful. Enjoying it.

Looks beautiful, picked up on Steam sale today. Man I hope this is good.
