The gameplay in Year Walk is where my trouble with the game really began. It’s a graphical style that I can understand some people not “appreciating”.

I know this game was originally a mobile and PC release, but I feel like a little bit more could have been done to enhance the world of Year Walk. The best way I can describe it would be something akin to abstract art: some people will really enjoy it, and some people won’t. While I did like the presentation style of the game, at times, it felt a bit too superficial. Couple that with well done sound effects and the general aesthetics and atmosphere of the game are very well done. The drawings and details in the environment help bring a feeling of desolation and general despair which fits in the theme of the game. It’s a hybrid of 2D graphics on a 3D plane, and the presentation feels a bit like a well done comic book style. The graphical style of Year Walk is very interesting and for the most part, rather well done. The game does have additional story and folklore elements that you can read up on, but I never felt “engaged” and lost in the story like I would have hoped to in a horror game. It was told in a decent enough manner with dialogue, but I never really felt I understood everything going on. To be honest, I wasn’t very interested in the story. Daniel participates in the ritual anyways, and then the game really begins. The story has you playing as Daniel, who visits his lover who warns him of “year walking” and the consequences of it. Year Walk is based on Swedish folklore where a person would deprive themselves of sleep and food for 24 hours then travel through the woods.

Originally a mobile platform release, Year Walk for the Wii U is considered by the developers to be the “definitive” version of the game. I watched the debut trailer for the title and was introduced to its creepy and spooky atmosphere filled with horror elements and just general darkness that looked like something I would really enjoy. Year Walk looked like a game right up my alley.
