It’s the rare game that gets better the more you play. The result is a story and world that wouldn’t feel entirely out of place in an old Jim Henson film, with some blood, sweat, and tears added for good measure.īrothers: A Tale of Two Sons is filled with the sort of moments that you wouldn’t wish to see spoiled here. They communicate appropriate despair and delight at each surprising new twist and turn. Neither boy ever speaks a familiar word over the entire course of the adventure, but grunts and gobbledygook admirably get the job done. The story that unfolds as the two boys together endure one mishap after another is surprisingly satisfying, which only serves to make the clumsy opening scene stand out even more.
