With the remains of the returnal review embargo, the game’s scores began to be published. The game, which we, as Merlin’s Cauldron, review both written and video, seems to exceed expectations in general. With the points he scored, we can already say that it was one of the surprises of the year. In the game, in which we direct the character Selene who falls to a planet called Atropos, we find ourselves in a great cycle and look for ways to get out of this cycle while trying to solve story mysteries.
