One-Eyed Likho belongs in that rare category of games that take such a dark narrative and setting and manage to infuse it all with a surrealism that often verges on the comic. Even the epic conclusion of the story raised a smile at its presentation and effect. While not a long game and one that follows a very linear path, there are more moments and images here that will stay in your memory than many far longer games can muster.

One-Eyed Likho is inspired by a unique folktale and delivers a surreal experience, but its lacklustre puzzles and lack of tension make it just an okay game. Granted, it is interesting enough to stay to the end.

One-Eyed Likho will appeal to fans of folklore and greyscale visuals, but its lack of scary moments and generic puzzles hold it back somewhat.

Atmospheric, but very hard to follow walking simulator with some light puzzles. The story is way to convoluted to be engaging, and unfortunately that turns the entire game into a boring walking sim. The visuals are nice, loved the folk horror aspect, but I just couldn't care less about the story.

Only worth 10-12 dollar or watch it on utube.
- 3 - 3:30 hour long. -repetitive short 1st person russian folklore adventure easy game, shuttering on save, bad disappointment ending, easy puzzles and some people will not like play without color. -only good graphic, late game music and lore.

It is unlikely that One-Eyed Likho will come as a revelation to anyone. Nevertheless, this is an extremely enjoyable and visually unique adventure with an atmosphere of a nightmarish fairy tale.
