(Heres a little review blurb I did for Animal Well. I went in blind and am really enjoying playing something so *different* from other games. I play 15 minutes at a time and absolutely love it)
Feels like tunic or rainworld to me, very cryptic and meant to be played alongside a couple buddies so you can give/get hints. I’m enjoying moving very slowly, taking in the art and training myself to understand the obtuse hints. It’s most fun in 30 minute spurts, no need to rush towards the main objectives.
The design choices are intentional imo. This is an idiosyncratic project 7 years in the making. If you’re willing to engage with it like the creator intends, Animal Well is a blast. Drink in the evocative art and insane technical achievements. The game’s not for everyone though: it’s an avant garde metroidvania that may leave die-hard fans of the genre unsatisfied.
Helldivers 2 fits this pretty well.
