I honestly can't remember the last time I played a game like Neverway. In fact, let me just confidently say here that I don't think I ever have. Believe me, I've played a lot of very strange, deeply unsettling games before, but after spending around an hour with Neverway's prologue on Steam alone, I'm not sure any of them even come close. It's not just the mood, either. It's the way every part of the game comes together into this well-oiled, nightmarish machine that is just unnerving enough to, rather than paralyze you or make you want to hide under the thickest comforter you can find, actually make you want to keep pushing forward out of hope that there's a resolution lying in wait ahead. And somehow, beneath all its strange and delightfully disturbing antics, Neverway still makes room for familiar Zelda-inspired combat and the life sim loop of games like Graveyard Keeper and Stardew Valley.
