Eternal Strands, the debut title from Yellow Brick Games, demonstrates a blend of nostalgia and fresh concepts. Directed by Mike Laidlaw of BioWare fame, the game's narrative follows Brynn and her team exploring a lost civilization. While the story leans on familiar tropes and may feel overwhelming, the sandbox-style environment transforms mundane fetch quests into dynamic experiences. Players can interact with various objects across different biomes, enhancing the gameplay. However, the RPG elements feel lacking, leading to a conflict between player engagement and story depth.
"The major selling point of Eternal Strands, the debut game from Yellow Brick Games, is the pedigree of its developers, bringing fresh takes on old ideas."
"Engaging with the primary cast feels as if you're encroaching on a friend group that's working through some serious shit, and really not in the mood to entertain a casual acquaintance."
