I wish it was more than just a boss-rush game, but Jotun is very cool. The hand-drawn art is beautiful and the boss designs are epic and feel truly massive. Video games love giant bosses but they too often struggle to translate the giant boss into a satisfying experience. It often ends up being just smacking their hands or waiting for them to crash onto the battlefield and then wail on them for a minute. Jotun is able to capture the hype of a giant boss without it being boring or derivative.

Jotun's bosses are all uniquely designed and the mechanics of the camera pulling away to show the scale of the boss and the full scope of the battle is great and makes you feel truly miniscule by comparison.

The only downsides to the game are that there is not really any exploration of the beautiful environments, since it's just a boss rush and that the combat mechanics are pretty limited.
