Judero is one of the most immediately disarming games I've played. Take exploration and combat that's reminiscent of classic The Legend of Zelda, via modern games such as Tunic, Death's Door, and even Elden Ring. Then mix in the disconcerting horror stylings seen in the likes of Mundaun and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, accentuated by its jerky, hand-crafted stop-motion animation.
You can check out the next game from Beeswing and Dujanah developer Jack King-Spooner with a swish demo launched alongside a crowdfunding campaign. Judero is its name, and a surprisingly action-heavy adventure through the Scottish Borders is its game. Expect folklore, witches, jokes, stop motion, and beasties to battle and mind control.
