One of the most inspired game mechanics I’ve seen in years is the way that you use the timed release of your arrows to hit the floating talismans scattered around to propel your character forward faster. It’s a fine balance between exploration and action that makes it great for ‘pick up and play’ sessions. Together, they speed through the huge open expanse, fighting against these tremendously powerful and jaw-droppingly large bosses, but there are periods of slow down spent solving intricate puzzles by having the bird lift and push objects such as mirrors that redirect light or trigger weight-based switches. You play as The Hunter, a character who uses her eagle companion to help her solve puzzles, explore further by lifting her into the air and puts the hurt on bosses to help finish them off in a magnificent display. Created by the amazing studio that brought us Abzû and worked on the award-winning Journey, this new title manages to feel both unique and familiar. The Pathless is an engrossing adventure that takes you through a huge open-world environment to fight hulking beasts that threaten a mysterious, cursed world you are tasked to protect.
