Just absolutely stunning,” wrote one user, while another added, “It’s crazy this came out in 2014. Just shows art design and building goes a long way.”

“One of my favourite games. Sadly, it was too short. I finished it in half a day or less. It was epic,” read another comment. “This game is more than a decade old and is better than most western games made nowadays,” declared one fan.
