Roki Review - Beautiful and stimulating fairy tale jewel

Once upon a time a boy, his sister and their father, in a cabin in the woods. It was not an ordinary boy, and they were not ordinary woods ... Developed by Polygon Treehouse, Roki is a magnificent, moving and moving experience. Inspired by Scandinavian folklore, players are transported in a tale of epic but dark fairy, full of useful trolls, of the playful tomte and many wonders. You play Tove, the elder sister of the playful player and imaginative Lars. It s been a while for their families to have experienced the tragic loss of their mother. Living in a cabin in the woods with their father, Tove took responsibility for taking care of his little brother who swears he can hear and speak with the creatures of the forest. One night, a terrible monster attacked their home. Tove and Lars barely manage to escape, but in their escape, they find themselves in a new strange place ...

From the first minutes of Roki, you will undoubtedly notice the beautiful aesthetics of the game. The shapes appear in bright and united colors with a minimal contour. The tones are both earthy and yet ethereal to cement the surreal and fairy nature of the story. Not only is it nice to see, but the fluid movement of the animations and the subtle details make an incredibly immersive experience. The shadows in the foreground add to the depth field, and when you realize for the first time that you can explore almost anywhere on the screen - leaving a trace in the snow with the sound of the sweet powder under your feet - The game suddenly seems much bigger.

Roki is very rich in Scandinavian traditions. All, magical creatures that you encounter the very nature of the story itself - the idea of ​​losing and trying to find your family - recalls the classic folk style we know. TOVE is afraid but is brave. She follows her heart to arrange things, and it s not managed in a Disney, everything will be fine so. There are tempted moments that you do not know quite how they will take place and in that, it almost founds history in comparable realism. It may not be the first independent game to rely strongly on Scandinavian traditions, but he certainly managed it best.
