About Walk 50000 Studs For Nothing:
It’s been months since I first played Year Walk on iOS and I still think about it regularly. The Steam version of this game is as beautifully made as the original, and the changed puzzles feel at home on the PC. The atmosphere is greatly enhanced in this version of the game, providing a creepier mood than the iOS version – so much so that surprises I knew were coming still got jolts out of me. The story behind this game is so intriguing and mysterious that I wish there was more information about it online; Year Walk is an amazing introduction into Scandinavian folklore that everyone should play. It’s New Years eve, and at the stroke of midnight you wander out into the dark to participate in a Swedish tradition known as Year Walking, or Årsgång. Meet and be tested by supernatural creatures such as The Huldra, The Myling, The Brook Horse, The Night Raven, and the feared Church Grimm as you make your way to the church to divine and see future events. Decipher the journal. Open the box. 2-4+ hours to complete, this game is absolutely amazing and I was not expecting that ending at all. This game is meant to be played twice, but beaten once. There are two “endings.” Puzzles are relatively simple; I do not recommend trying to open the box until you finish all the tests to unlock the journal first. While the game may seem confusing at first, it becomes significantly less so as you explore the map and make connections and discover hints to your tasks.
