Description
"The Frostrune is everything a classic point-and-click puzzler should be, and there's really not much else to be said. It's an utter joy to play through, and a genuine must-have for lovers of the genre."
- 9/10,  Pocket Gamer

Unravel a mystery inspired by Viking myth and legend in The Frostrune, a classic point-and-click adventure based on ancient Norse culture and environments. 

Find yourself shipwrecked on an island after a summer storm. Nearby, a recently abandoned settlement shows signs that its inhabitants left in a panic. Surrounding the village is a dark, dense forest filled with ancient rune stones and burial mounds. Among them are hidden relics and other well-kept secrets that will bring you closer to solving the mysteries of the island.  

" The Frostrune speaks for itself and stands out amongst its competitors as a crowning achievement in the point & click genre. For those who enjoy playing Point-and-Clicks or those interested in Vikings or Norse lore, this is an experience well worth getting." - Matthew White, Opnoobs. 9/10

Excellent concept! Puzzles could use some help

I love the overall concept and execution of this game. The story is interesting, it stays true to Norse mythology & the production value is excellent. The music and voice work blew me away, I was not expecting that from a $5 game! That being said, some of the puzzles were confusing in their execution, which made me feel lost at times & reliant on the included hints. I still give 5 stars however, as the hints were included for free & unlocked as I played. Great job, hope to see more in the future!

Snoozefest with a side of meh

To be fair, the graphics and interface are undeniably attractive; aesthetics hold no ground however when the rest of the game falls so flat. Beyond it being inordinately boring with unnecessarily lengthy and dramatic dialogue, there’s this constant bane of wondering what to do next... and early on you realize that you don’t care what to do next because you’ve completely lost interest in this puzzle-less nap. I also truly disliked that the game itself doesn’t fill your screen- inventory and visuals are so small to begin with so not having the game stretch to the full width of your screen does it no favors.

Worth the price

Some games are real art and immerse you in a different world. Frostrune is one of those. The puzzles were not all that hard but thoroughly enjoyable to play. I didn’t feel cheated as some have said although it didn’t take me too long to finish. I like the way the story developed. This game embodied what I love in adventure games, immersion in a different world and puzzles.

I loved it!

It was buggy tbh. for a while there was a thing that wouldn’t let me finish past the horse level—I’d get the thing right but it would crash out, so i deleted the game, mad at myself for paying for it. but i came back to it and manages to finish it and wow. the story was so simple but effective and all the side puzzles served the main point of the game, and you could really just click around and look at stuff. the sound is beautiful! the ghosts were A+—whoever was singing those voices, thank you. The art is stunning, wow. What a gorgeous game. over all I’m really happy I came back to this.

Very Well Done

This is a very high quality game in almost every way. The story is excellent, especially if you like Norse mythology. The setting is mysterious and a little creepy at times. The sound, music, and voice acting were well done, and the spectre vision was very cool. Overall, I really enjoyed the game, especially the fact that hints came with it. If only it was longer, but it was still long enough to be a good game.

PLAY THIS Haunting, Beautiful, Creative Game!

I was disappointed to read some lackluster reviews of this game—but thankfully they didn’t dissuade me. I’m so glad that I purchased and played this game, as it’s a point-and-click adventure in its own genre. The puzzles are creative and just challenging enough (thank goodness for the in-game hints), the music is haunting, and the artwork is exquisite. Best of all, the world is truly immersive, with the perfect synthesis of storyline, artwork, puzzles, and atmosphere. I’ve played A LOT of games, and the list of 5-star winners is limited to The Room series and the Rusty Lake series. Thanks to The Frostrune, I’ve added one more game to that list?!

Thoughtfully put together

Nice puzzles and flow. Not sure if it’s $5 nice, but nice nevertheless. It would be awesome if there was a soundtrack option, or mini-game just to play around with the vocal melodies and combinations therein. I often Play the game just up to the singing part and start again to hear it. Hearing the men belt out the operatic folk tune gives me chills. Multi language option is awesome too. (Music option = 5 stars from me)
