Released on October 31 via Don’t Nod — the studio best known for the Life is Strange series, as well as vampire RPG Vampyr — Jusant currently boasts Metacritic scores ranging from 82 to 85, depending on the platform. Meanwhile, on Steam, 96 percent of user reviews for the game are positive, which is a very high percentage for the platforms. In other words, it seems consumers are enjoying it even more than critics. And this ties into one of the top posts on the Xbox Game Pass Reddit page, which warns “don’t sleep” on the game. And judging by the amount of votes up and most of the comments, this is good advice.
“Jusant is a brand-new action-puzzle climbing game and a meditative journey to the top of a tall tower,” reads an official pitch of the game. “Challenge yourself at your own pace, explore different paths, and unravel the secrets from a bygone civilization.”
The game’s official description continues, adding some details about gameplay: “Master your climbing tools and watch your stamina meter to successfully navigate this mysterious and changing tower. As you go higher and hone your skills, you’ll have to figure out how best to use the tools at your disposal to get to where you want to go. Explore alternative paths to find clues about what happened here.”
