Stick Skills: "The Yawhg will be here in six weeks. This sums up the premise of the upcoming indie PC release The Yawhg. Described as a choose-your-own adventure game, it promises a multitude of different stories, with a variety of endings you shape during the buildup to the Yawhg’s arrival. The only question is, will such a game warrant the $10 price tag? If you value narrative or atmosphere at all, the answer is a resounding yes."
Gary Hartley Writes: The kind of tainted fairy-tale spectacle The Yawhg promotes sadly fades all too soon, despite the whimsically strong writing and the playful art that often hints at a slightly darker edge. For all its subtle melancholy and inventive storytelling, there’s only a small window of time when all these things mesh together to create something special. After that, it’s more about rediscovery and rehashing in the futile hopes that relevance can be discovered by combining the old and worn.
A good RPG is really difficult to find these days. Can The Yawhg be counted among some of the greatest India RPG titles out there? Or is it another one of those games which no one will think about a few years down the road.
