Review of Two Falls – Nishu Takuatshina for PlayStation 5

Sure, let’s dive into the wild, brain-jumping ride that is my stream-of-consciousness take on “Two Falls – Nishu Takuatshina.” Here goes nothing:

—

So, uh, “Two Falls – Nishu Takuatshina,” yeah? I mean, talk about a journey through… I don’t even know – distant lands and times? Feels like you’re stepping back, way back, to the 17th century, smack in the middle of French and Indigenous drama. Got Maikan and Jeanne, this young Innu dude and a woman from Nouvelle-France. Her title? Daughter of the King. Sounds fancy, but she’s just trying to make it to Quebec with her dog Capitaine after some ship mishap. Talk about an adventure!

Anyway, you see, Jeanne’s out there in the Canadian wilderness, far from familiar faces, while Maikan’s got his hands full with the land turning sour and the white folks causing a fuss. He didn’t sign up for this when he was dreaming of hunting game, right?

Oh, before I forget – the gameplay. It’s first-person, which means you’re right there with them. Moving around, checking stuff out with sticks – no, not tree sticks, the analog ones. You run, you interact, you’re basically living their lives, one decision at a time. And decisions? Yeah, sometimes they’re more tangled than my headphone wires.

And trophies! If you’re into collecting those shiny digital badges, get this: there’s a Platinum trophy. If that doesn’t get you out of bed, maybe giving that bone to Capitaine will – dogs are the best, aren’t they?

The game’s made with a lot of heart, working with Native communities and all. That’s pretty commendable. A Council of Elders, no less – sounds like something out of a fantasy book but real – how cool is that?

Ah, almost forgot – the PS5 disclaimer bit. The copy comes straight from Affordance Studio. They’re the magicians behind this digital narrative ride.

Gosh, I hope this messy take gives a glimmer of what “Two Falls – Nishu Takuatshina” is all about. Just jump in and let the game sweep you away in one chaotic, forest-y swirl!

And there it is, with all the quirks intact. Hopefully, it’s as human as it can get!
