Took me a few years, but I remembered it and fought though to the end. A harrowing tale of revenge, loss and acceptance of duty to make sure the world keeps spinning.

It's a very short game (finishd story and got all chives in less than 4h even if I died quite a few times), but it feels like the right length for this kind of story. If you see it in a sale and you want to play a quick story this might be the right choice.
Though I will confess I don't want to hear the name Espen ever again.

It is not very fun. The game is fine, being just a short story with horror elements, norse mytology and Norwegian folklore. The latter really is the only sellingpoint here.
- The game runs nicely and I only encountered one visual bug on max graphics.
- The Norwegian voice acting was tame and soul-less.
- It does not look very nice, apart from model details and some props.
- It was difficult to care for the characters and story.
- The best part was encountering folklore creatures and norse characters, and that is a about it.
3/10
Fine for an evening when you are burned out on other games, want to play a walking simulator and possibly have a mild fever.
