Feb 2, 2024GRAVEN aims for an intriguing combination of exploration, combat, and puzzle solving. All are decent, neither is truly good and the game cannot seem to decide what kind of experience it wants to create. I really wanted to use the spells, especially fire, to kill enemies, without resorting to blades or arrows. It doesn’t help that the fictional world feels derivative, and it is feel a connection to our Orthogonal hero. The game really needs a map. GRAVEN could have offered an interesting update on Hexen but it’s just a sometimes enjoyable mix of combat and puzzle work.

Jan 24, 2024A game inspired by the classics of the 90s, with a great atmosphere, level design, and exploration, but also with some flaws, such as an uneven combat, some obtuse design choices, and a questionable save system. It is a very old-school experience, for better and for worse, that can captivate and frustrate in equal measure.
