About this game

Welcome to the mysterious world of ancient myth, based on finno-ugric culture of bygone pagan times.

Long-long time ago the world was created out of an egg-shell by a god named Yen. In the murky depths of the endless ocean the Lower World was born. The Middle World was made for the men to dwell, and the Upper World was were the ancient gods would reside. Multitudes of spirits dwell among the layers of creation, guarding their secrets in the dark. Embark on a journey through all the worlds of ancient myth, find artefacts of Chud' tribes and solve all the mysteries of finno-ugric tales.

You are the Mooseman and you have the ability to see all that is hidden to the mortal eye. You are about to visit three layers of this universe - the first one is the Lower World where the spirits of the dead reside.

Ratings and reviews

This game was fun, and has a lot of cool stories, but it's impossible to finish, which is frustrating when I paid for the full game. Towards the end there is a section that involves escaping lighting on a bird, but you can't do it, because even if you hold forward you will not move forward. There a no skips or hints so you're just stuck. I checked YouTube for tutorials to see if I was the problem, but it seems that others have had the same issue. Because of this I can't recommend buying the game

The concept, artwork, and music for this game are all amazing. The game's soundtrack, relying on some fantastic folk song arrangements sung by a Russian choir, is one of the best I've ever heard. If you're interested in unique musical cultures, you've gotta check this game out. The gameplay itself, however, especially the controls, can be really frustrating. The game could also use a tutorial. The game scores highly as a piece of interactive art, with a low score for gameplay.

This was an amazing game. I fell in love with it from start to end. The music, the visuals, even the game play (which other reviewers said was hard) was incredible! I didn't unlock all the collectables but I was able to complete it. There are no strict guidelines gor certain parts of the game but if you die enough it makes sense. I am so glad I bought the full version because this game was amazing. I will likely replay it after this review. The story was magical as well as the visuals 10/10.
