Neva

Neva is a tale of growth not only within the game’s story but for Nomada Studio itself, showcasing how the studio has evolved since GRIS. With a more action-oriented focus, while retaining its emotional depth, As in Journey, surely now an ordained saint of artistically ambitious and emotionally resonant video games, that cleaved mountain always looms in the distance, beckoning you towards it. You do eventually reach it, in the dead of winter, beaten down, the world dying around you. I’m still thinking about what happened there. Neva is in all masterpiece. It's a must-play for anyone seeking a break from the grind of casual gaming, offering both meaningful gameplay and a heartfelt experience. <3 <3

[h2]A Beautiful Journey[/h2] I really liked this game! The way it tells the story is just awesome, and the overall atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. The mechanics/puzzles are simple and easy to pick up, making it a really smooth experience. [b]A Note on the DLC:[/b] They released a DLC last month (Feb 2026) that shows how Neva and Alba met, and it is really good! It introduces some new mechanics and puzzles separate from the main game. Also note that the DLC is [i]not[/i] needed for 100% completion, but I still highly recommend experiencing it.

I was very excited to play Neva from Nomada Studios, as I really liked their other game, Gris. And indeed, it was full of interesting platform game dynamics, some reminiscent of Gris, and a few total new ones. I liked the bond we shared with Neva, the titular character. I am grateful we had the option of playing a narrative game or normal game , (you have to fight enemies in this game) as someone who doesn't do well fighting I could still enjoy the game on my own pace. The story had me crying, and I waited a long time before I went back to get all achievenments, because I had a hard time overcoming my grief. Still I went back in the end, and am so happy I did. The secret cutscene was really sweet. I also purchased the prologue, which is amazing. It introduced new mechanics and wasn't too short or too long compared to the main game. If you have played the game and liked it I really recommend that too. I hope others enjoy this game as much as I did, and I wish Nomada Studios a productive future!
