Northern Journey Is A Brilliant Indie Game That You Should Play

In this video I go into why I think Northern Journey is a very special indie game that deserves to be played by more people.

The game was made by one person in their spare time and its the first game they have ever made. This ended up leading to a unique and interesting game full of loads of unconventional and weird ideas you dont see all that often in newer games today.

Yet it all somehow comes together to create an enjoyable, memorable and at times pretty insane game that I believe is more than worth your time and money.

Thanks a lot for watching and I hope you enjoy the video!

Maybe go and check Northern Journey out afterwards if you like the look of it, that would be very cool!
