'Embracelet', The Cosy Adventure We Needed

Hi everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!

Indie games are such an important part of the world of gaming. They reflect on beauty that big studios could probably never achieve. I find they are usually also the most cosy and relaxing games you can find, and sometimes that is just the kind of game we need in our lives.


Embracelet is a beautiful exploration game about Jasper, a Norwegian boy with a strong connection to his grandfather. It follows the story of a magical bracelet, which Jasper must return to where his grandfather grew up. This is all while Jasper discovers the history of his grandfather. This is all while you meet and build a relationship with the two friends he meets.


There art style and sceneries in this game just scream cosy throughout the entire game. The simplicity of the art is amazing, but the soundtrack just makes the entire experience insanely relaxing and mellow. I feel like this is the type of game most people could just sit and play in one sitting, and then it makes you want to experience it all again. All in all it is not just a game, it truly is an entire experience.


The storyline of this game is a little bit sombre, but also very beautiful. It doesn't have a huge level of difficulty, which is just something that you don't see in a lot of games these days. It also manages to teach us some subtle life lessons about things such as the waste on our planet, and recycling, which is of course a very important thing for everyone to be educated about. This is all also complimented well with the concept of choices leading to different outcomes.


I highly recommend this game for any Indie game lovers, or any people that love cosy yet simplistic games, like myself. The 3 to 6 hours of gameplay is long enough for the price to be well worth it, and I will definitely be playing it again soon. A huge shout out and thank you to machineboy for being kind enough to give me a copy of this beautiful game for the Switch. I am very grateful.
