So what I can say about Jotun is that it can be seen as a pretty good work of art, at least considering its limitations. It had at first struck me as a gimmick which was likely to prove annoying, but once I actually played for a while and heard it a few times, I realized it really fit and enhanced the setting and the desired atmosphere. I’d say that the spoken language proved to be somewhat more notable, on the other hand. How Thora presents a part of her story after each section also works out all right, despite probably not being something notable in itself. The way the creation myth was used in the Ymir’s Blood area struck me as particularly notable, though I guess others may disagree, since this is very obvious while in other areas the mythology was perhaps more organically intertwined. That is indeed excellent, and also does a good job of creating the sensation of scale and of how small Thora is compared to the challenges she’s facing, but the music isn’t bad either and the developers seem to have made pretty good use of the mythology, at least for the limitations of the game. What does work well in Jotun is the art, and I’m not just referring to the style of the graphics.
