About the game

Midvinter is a cozy little point-and-click game, which invites you to explore Swedish folklore using puzzles and riddles as well as compelling music and voice over. In it, you as a player take on the role of gnome - the guardian of the farm - and get to interact with various dark and fantastical creatures. Your task is to try and stop the troll from kidnapping a human child, which may prove too hard to do on your own. If only there was someone else that could help you...

    The achievements almost provide more content than the game itself, but sometimes I just want to kill some time without investing many hours or days (or weeks, or months) in the experience, and for that, Midvinter delivers.

    The UI is awful. Animations are sllloooww. Very little exposition about the folklore. You can complete the game in 30 minutes. Very little replay value unless you want to see all the endings and get all the achievements. I 100%ed it in 87 minutes.
