Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons

(micro-review)

content image

Genre: Adventure;

Release date: 03-Sep-2013 ;

Overview:     

Guide two brothers on an epic fairy tale journey from visionary Swedish film director, Josef Fares and top-tier developer Starbreeze Studios.

Control both brothers at once as you experience co-op play in single player mode, like never before.

Solve puzzles, explore the varied locations and fight boss battles, controlling one brother with each thumbstick.

A man, clinging to life. His two sons, desperate to cure their ailing father, are left with but one option. They must set out upon a journey to find and bring back the "Water of Life" as they come to rely on one another to survive. One must be strong where the other is weak, brave where the other is fearful, they must be... Brothers.

This is one journey you will never forget.

   This short adventure game is more of an atmospheric story which intends to make you feel. The puzzles are very simple but in this context it’s OK. The game requires a controller to play and I got stuck in one puzzle because of the way my Steam controller was set up. By the way, you can even play it co-op on the same machine. Even though I’m not crazy about the story, its implementation, including the visual artwork and the universe in which it takes place, was very good.

 Rating: No Mr. Bond, I expect you to cry!
