A wonderful, gritty Adventure with a great Speaker-I had everything read out:D The Puzzles aren't the heaviest Nuts now, but the Game just has so much Charm and Poetry that I can look past it with Ease.

A very short but nice Adventure. The whole thing is kept pretty gloomy but that doesn't spoil the Fun.
I find the Puzzles very nice-with the Elementary Runes-from time to time you can also tinker a little bit. :P I like the Graphics very much and the Music is also pleasant.

A wonderfully coherent Game. Lovingly drawn Figures and a cuddly Main Character lead through the Darkness of mysterious Places.
One is reminded of almost forgotten Mythical Figures and learns about their Origin and their Nature. As Point & Click Adventure sehr gelungen; The Puzzles are not too simple.
I would also like to make a particularly positive Point of the Narrator voices and, in general, to highlight the Whole setting, which contribute a great deal to the Flair of the Game.
All-round Schemes and definitely a Buy recommendation!

A really fancy Game ...!
Whether it's the History, the different Locations or the small and large Creatures, it's just Fun to explore everything.
Especially the rune stones at the bottom ...
In each Picture, they had different Effects, whether Game-crucial or unimportant.
I am a great FAN from AMANITA Design (Eg Machinarium, Botanicula, Samorost ...)
Oknytt is of a similar Nature.
Not so dripping, but also made great.
Too bad that there are sooo few Games (as far as I know) in this Way.
I can only hope that more will follow ...!
From me a "Thumbs up"

Due to its special Presentation, "Oknytt" Really stands out among other Point & Click Games. I think it was visually oriented towards Scandinavian artists such as Theodor Kittelsen, who was known, among other things, for his Portrayal of Mythical Creatures. As a Player, you will not experience the (now somewhat hoped-out) Pop Culture version of Elves, Trolls, Witches and other Figures, but the traditional Version of Nordic Folklore. Definitely a nice Change in this Genre!
Verdict: With this Game, there's nothing I didn't like!
Story, Mood, Characters, puzzles and Music: Everything harmonizes and creates together a dark and incredibly atmospheric Mythical world. The small (not insignificant at all) Creature is closed into the Heart as a Player from the Beginning, so that your further Story inevitably captivates and touches you.
I can therefore recommend "Oknytt" unreservedly and would like to thank the Developers for this little work of art In Game form. Hopefully we can expect many More titles of this Kind! :)
