  • Mundaun is a bit of a hidden gem that I hope get’s more eyes on it as a result of this upgraded Ps5 release. Despite frustrating and doing little to push the genre forward when it comes to moment-to-moment gameplay, Mundaun is an absolute delight in almost every other regard. Its folklore-infused narrative that manages to terrify without relying on genre staples such as excessive gore and jump scares, and the unique and haunting art style that is unlike anything else offered by the genre, both come together to create something truly special and unique.

  • Mundaun will attract its targeted, tiny demographic: those who can see past the dated visuals and lackluster controls. Fortunately, the hand-drawn textures might rope in a few people, and the sepia-esque colors stand out compared to other first-person adventure titles. Mundaun is technologically impotent but makes up for it with excellent atmosphere, sense of place, and storytelling. If you can see past its flaws, Mundaun is a wonderful, short adventure title.

  • Overall, Mundaun is a very worthwhile horror title, even if it may be a little rough around the edges in some areas. The compelling story mixed with the game’s unique aesthetic is enough to create a memorable experience that fans of spooky things are sure to enjoy.

  • Hurt only by the Switch's take on its visuals, Mundaun delivers above and beyond its appearances and offers a robust, constantly compelling adventure game. It isn't particularly scary, but it is rich in atmosphere and hosts plenty of gameplay variety and good ideas.

  • The game isn’t above jolting you with the odd jump scare, but it’s far happier to politely trouble your sleep.

  • Mundaun is a gripping and unique horror adventure with an immersive portrayal of rural Switzerland and a distinctive visual presentation that only gets more uncanny the longer you look at it.

  • Mundaun is an excellent and very atmospheric horror game in a unique setting. It’s a classic folk-tale, but it’s really interesting to learn a bit about this secluded culture, in the context of this game? The style of the graphics is really interesting and fitting to both the story and the atmosphere of the game. The music is not that obviously present, which is actually great to add to the atmosphere.

  • If you want to tear Mundaun apart for the things it isn’t, you are absolutely able to do so. Mundaun can be a bit, well, mundane. That said, it really is a nice way to kill a weekend as you are playing on your couch, late at night, enjoying its tale and the approximate eight hours of gameplay.

  • Considering how highly detailed the original sketches must have been this really is a work of art in video game form, that needs to be seen to be believed. Mundaun may be inspired by local folklore but it keeps you guessing right up until the end.
