    Beautifully fresh game with great story, AI is pretty poor but not bad enough to dampen the game in any means.

    Mundaun has very intriguing and interesting story and setting with some very weird and mysterious cast of characters that makes this a memorable experience. The game features a pencil drawn art style and monochromatic color scheme. The visuals really make this game stand out from other gams. The game features some awesome music that really add to the creepy ambiance its going for.Mundaun has very intriguing and interesting story and setting with some very weird and mysterious cast of characters that makes this a memorable experience. The game features a pencil drawn art style and monochromatic color scheme. The visuals really make this game stand out from other gams. The game features some awesome music that really add to the creepy ambiance its going for. Reagrding the gamplay this game is a first person horror game where you need to explore big open areas to find key items to explore the game. The fighs agains enemies are very clunky because the wants you to mostly evade and hide from enemies. The best part of this game is its story, setting, unique art style and the type of horror it goes for. This barely has any jumpscares. Instead it goes for the tyoe of horror that makes you feel unconfterble and makes you feel like there is something wrong with this place. The game doesnt hold you hand in what regards to gameplay. You have a notebook with objectives, clues and maps, but you have to figure things out with those tools. The game wont give you markers to tell you excatly where you need to go. As part of the negatives of this game I would have to say 1. framerate on the ps4 version is unstable. Its doesnt take away from the experience but it is noticible. 2. The pacing of the story is slow. 3. The art style despite being interesting can get visually tiresome after a few hours of gameplay. 4. There may be moments of the game were you may find yourself wasting time trying to figure out what to do because sometimes its not very clear. 5. Traversing the big open areas can get a little bit boring because of how slow the character moves.

    The hand-drawn graphics enhance the 7 atmosphere of what is essentially an interactive indie arthouse horror. Not perfect, but far from mundane. [Issue#1, p.79]

    For those that let themselves be enveloped by the desolate peaks of Mundaun, it will be an unforgettable experience. On the other hand, anyone expecting more active gameplay might end up feeling a bit disappointed. Personally? Mundaun is my jam. I’ve been to mountain villages similar to the one here and I’ve actually felt similar sensations and vague feelings of disquiet — the devs have absolutely tapped into that terrible loneliness and parlayed it into a solid and enjoyable horror adventure, ideal for anyone on the hunt for something different.

    Mundaun is a very personal game that magically connects with everybody. Once you start playing you will not be able to leave it until you finish it. It's definitely a unique experience and highly recommended.
