A TPP adventure arcade game, in which we must climb a mighty tower. Jusant tasks us with monitoring the protagonist's stamina, looking for alternate paths and using our equipment, such as ropes and grapples.
Jusant is a climbing focused arcade adventure game. It was developed by Don't Nod, also responsible for games such as Harmony: The Fall of Reverie.
Jusant is set in a fantasy world. We play as a young man climbing a massive, looming tower to discover the secrets of its builders - an ancient civilization. He's accompanied by Ballast, a very helpful water creature.
Jusant is a third-person game (TPP).The player must climb the mighty tower through various biomes - rocky ones, rainy and windy ones, plant-covered ones and snowy ones. There are also dark caves to explore and ancient ruins holding mysterious devices.
The climb is challenging, as we must monitor our protagonist's stamina and pause occasionally to let him rest. We must also look out for paths to keep climbing and use our equipment. The grapple and rope the hero's equipped with protect him from lethal falls, letting him overcome chasms and other obstacles.
Ballast deserves a separate mention, as it can not only accompany the hero but also help him, providing him with hints and awakening nature along the way.
Jusant makes use of a colorful low poly artstyle. The soundtrack is impressive and atmospheric.
