Sword of the Sea is an action-adventure game developed by Giant Squid, the studio behind Abzû and The Pathless. Set in a vast desert landscape, players control a character known as the Wraith, exploring ruins and uncovering a lost world. Movement is centered on the "Hoversword," a tool that combines surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding mechanics. The game emphasizes fluid traversal, atmospheric exploration, and light puzzle-solving.

Wow. Journey was a beautful game that told a story without words but this somehow did it even better for me. The beauty and design spoke VOLUMES. I found myself speechless and completely lost in the game which is INCREDIBLY rare for me. Traversal was 100x better than journey and far more engaging. Everything felt smooth and all of it was a sight to behold. It really is an artistic masterpiece that at times was sending me to sleep (in the best way possible) due to how relaxed and beautiful everything was. I recommend this experience to everyone! Assuming they can pick it up for less than the £25 I paid for it...

Sequencia espiritual de Journey o jogo entrega uma qualidade tão boa quando o original, na verdade sendo melhor em algumas coisas, a gameplay de "surf" na espada é sensacional e a direção de arte nem se fala, realmente incrível, uma grata surpresa

Sword of The Sea é um dos jogos mais belos dos últimos tempos e com uma mensagem bem interessante, a qual não posso revelar aqui. Para quem jogou títulos como Journey e Abzu, tem uma bela experiência pela frente, para quem ainda não jogou, apenas se permita ter umas 3 horinhas disponíveis pois valerá muito a pena!
