Jan 1, 1970

Despite agonizing movements and getting lost a lot, it’s a joy to play — and experience. It excels when things are dark and quiet.

With its slow pacing and detailed puzzles, Rhiannon: Curse of the Four Branches is definitely a game for confirmed adventure fans rather than casual players, but aside from the spookiness factor being somewhat hampered by the low budget aesthetics, the story does a great job of pulling you in thanks to its intimate nature and everyday setting. A minor gem, but a rough one to be sure.

There is much to be commended about this game for such a small first-time development team, but overall I couldn’t help but be disappointed with Rhiannon: Curse of the Four Branches. The actual writing and mythology behind the game are intriguing and well-presented and the puzzles are generally interesting, but even accepting the lower production values as unavoidable, the samey, lifeless environments, awkward navigation, and a total lack of interactive feedback lead to the game not being as enjoyable to play as it could have been.
