After defeating (but not killing) him, take the key and return to the 'real' world. When you first see the Grizzled Boor, follow him to the titanic tree and enter to fight him.

That's the kind of feeling you will get.Go to the dream world during a full moon by falling asleep by the hearth in the cabin. It's hard to compare it to something else, but think of the first time you turned on Braid. Ambient sound curtains are layered on top of the game and gives you the creepy sense of being somewhere in between worlds. Perhaps due to the close co-operation where the game sometimes feels as though developed for the music rather than the other way around. The "EP" gives it away, and Jim Guthrie is the name of the Canadian singer/songwriter who has composed the soundtrack and a brilliant soundtrack it is. Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP also makes it a point of taking the shape of a music album. This powerful minimalism takes my breath away at times. They add lighting, depth and little camera movements. Capybara Games also avoids falling in the trap of 8-bit graphics and explores pixels with more modern technology. Superbrothers paints a beautiful pixelated wonderland where every new scene is beautiful enough to make me think of nailing my iPad to the wall instead of playing it. The lovely presentation is just icing on the cake. This game opens up and explores all the functionality of the platform, and then turns them into features and game mechanics. The potential isn't limited to high quality casual experiences. Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP is one of the best arguments for tablets as gaming devices. The developers Capybara Games believed in their idea and dared take risks, and we should keep in mind that the game is available for just a few pounds on iPad. It plays with our expectations and pulls the rug away from under our feet. It's a very self conscious game that doesn't shy away from greater concepts such as life and gaming in general.

It's a game with a narrative that can only exist in this medium. Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP gives the term meta a new meaning. You already know at the start that nothing will be as it as once you've completed your adventure. There is an eerie feeling of being in a dream.

It's one of the most polished experiences I've had the pleasure of experiencing for this price. It makes for a complex game full of new gaming mechanics and feature that according to all logics should have amounted to a pretentious mess.īut that's not true for Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP. The developers Capybara Games seem to have had a lot of ideas, and they chose to put them all into one single game. How else could the idea to combine old point-and-click mechanics with motion controls, social network functionality, music and a "neo-retro" presentation and an adventure that changes according to the phase the moon is in. If I didn't know better I would have guessed it descended from the stars. Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP doesn't appear to have been developed this way. Usually there is an idea for a mechanic that the developers want at the core of the game. Game development can start in various ways. They say that a thousand secrets lay buried here. I've long forgotten why I'm here, but it matters little. I've seen worlds born and destroyed, but now I'm finally here. I've seen the moon grow large and fade away.
