What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Bad North is a nice little strategic/puzzle game, with a charming and very readable grapichal style, a simple yet effective gameplay loop, and a rogue like campaign that does not overstay its welcome.
The drawn art style looks great, the animations are clean, and the music is simple but fits the game really well.
Very good sound design and graphics.
So much so that the game can be completed easily under 10 hours, the perfect title to be played on your Steam Deck while sitting on the sofa in the evening, watching TV.
