About This Game

A father and son tale, Last Inua will leave you breathless with its immersive, emotional and captivating gameplay.

Last Inua is an immersive and emotional, award winning 2D platform adventure game developed by Glowforth. Designed for the young and old and mixing classic platform genres, culminating in a captivating experience, Last Inua tells the tale of an Inuit family’s fight for survival against a fearsome demon and the harsh elements of the mythical Arctic.

The Tonrar, a demonic trickster, has awoken in the Arctic. The mythical powers that are still very active in this part of the world are under severe threat. The Tonrar is spreading his darkness that is taking over both the physical aspects (ice, snow and caves) but also the mythological. The Inuit gods, giant mythical creatures; the Ice Bear, the Raven and the Narwhal are all under threat by the Tonrar. They are slowly losing their power, health and sanity - infected by this darkness. Hiko and Ataataq are the only hope, yet Hiko is physically and will need to rely on the brute strength of his powerhouse father, Ataataq.

Guiding Hiko, his physically weak but gifted son along this epic journey, Ataataq will need to rely on his brute strength to overcome many obstacles. Hiko, although more fragile than his father, carries with him supernatural abilities and magical skills that exceed the physical powers of his father.

Together, Ataataq and Hiko must traverse the arctic landscape and visit The Trinity of the Mythical Creatures to help defeat the malevolent Tonrar. Physically weak and fragile, Hiko will need the help of his father to reach the end of this wondrous tale.

The story was nice, and the animation was awesome, but it was kind of short, and I think there could of been more depth to it.

I Recommend this game for it's wonderful story.

P.S My full review is under the video

This is a beatiful game with a immense stroyline, as you play as a Father who is trying to help his son (who you also play as) defeat the evil Demon "Tonrar".

-/+ Gameplay is alright but the controls are a tad slow when the characters movement's wish it was a bit faster as they move very slow when climbing on the next platform and it doesn't help when getting chased the AI don't follow you at times and can get really annoying as you die in 1 hit, but the puzzle mechanics are very solid, plus the unique way of making bridges for yourself to progress is really cool.

+ The visual aspect of the game is wonderful to look at as you are imbarked on this adventure to defeat Tonrar, with the beautiful scenery and the tone of the music that keeps you imbraced in the atmposhere around you.

- *Warning* No settings to change the audio or the gameplay settings.

+ However the tale itself is remarkably moving and i felt lost in the wonderful story.

Last Inua disappointed from the very first minute i bought it.

Upon starting the game first of all i noticed the cheap menu of an iOS port, but that's fine, it's not like i got it for the menu. Next, i see my game is in Russian. Developer says : "The game's language is determined by the language you machine is set in." My OS in actually in English, but who cares... There are indeed no language settings whatsoever, as well as no graphic ones. Only Continue, New Game, Controller Preset, Window Mode, Exit. That's the whole menu. And i don't know about the other translations, but the Russian one is definitely not well done, since i've noticed multiple words spelled together. Again, lazy iOS port.

Despite of other reviewers saying it has an interesting story, i'll say it's boring. The gameplay is linear, and puzzles are very simple. You control two characters, the Father and the Son, each having specific abilities. The Father can jump, destroy ice boulders and climb, while the Son can teleport through some magical read beams and sometimes create a temporal path between two obstacles. And that's it. You need to do what you need to, when you need to. No room for imagination in those fairly simple maps... In some maps, there is even en exact pattern by which you need to move the characters, and by doing it wrong i got stuck a few times being unable to continue. Naturally, i killed the character intentionally so can can start over, but imagine my surprise when i got revived in the same spot where i was stuck. To get over it i had to kill a character various times in different location before i was able to restart from an earlier point. And lastly, the controls are also imprecise. Jumping is a pain in the ♥♥♥, and when using the Son to create a temporal path, it will sometimes leave a gap in it, and since the characters are moving automatically on it, they will sometimes fall and die.

Better save your money and get Never Alone instead of this cheap and lazy iOS port...

Last Inua is a puzzle game where you control a father and son (each with different abilities) and attempt to get to the end of the level. The father can jump, rock climb, and punch through giant boulders of ice like Chris Redfield. The son is a little weakling who can teleport through portals scattered throughout the level and can spread magical glitter dust you can walk on. A level generally plays out with the father taking the lead, breaking ice blocks to open up a path, and then the son can teleport and walk on his glitter dust to meet up with the father at the end of the level.

The controls are fairly loose and imprecise, but won't cause any issues except in a few troublesome areas. The glitter dust controls definitely have some problems, though. When using a controller, hitting the dpad left or right will drop the dust in its preset path. The son will start to walk with it (even if you're not touching the analog stick), which causes issues when the glitter dust does not fall correctly. It will often leave a giant hole where no dust was dropped and you'll fall right into a pit. It can be remedied a bit by using a mouse.

It does look pretty fantastic, though. Just look at the screens. The music and presentation are clearly going for a fairly "airy" feeling. The Ico, Journey, and Outland influences are fairly obvious.

It's a pretty short game (took me 2.5 hours), but I enjoyed it. It would make for a good lazy Sunday playthrough.

The thing that seperates this game from any other is it's very well told story, which is easily immersive with the relaxing music and cute graphics. This game plays so smoothly, with no headaches.

One thing I can say that may not be for everyone is the two player based gameplay, the game is single player so you must switch from one character to the other to use their special abilites, rather than one character getting through a course you must get two characters through the course which creates some slight repetitiveness but it is mostly hidden as the characters tend to go through the levels in different ways.

Honest and non-misleading gameplay:

The pricing is fair, unlike most game releases and on a final note I recommend this game for those platforming addicts.
Expecting awesome new platforming mechanics?, wrong place but if you are cool with a basic platformer with a nice storyline you will not be upset with your purchase. Also note that if you computer is a dinosaur...like a windows 1998 0.01 ghz graphics card dinosaur, THIS GAME HAS NO GAME SETTINGS!

The game is so adorable, cute, witty, and the puzzles are interesting. This is one best mobile port released of 2014 and It's better play with Kb&M/Controller than Touchpad/Touchscreen..

Excellent indie game! Really loved mood. Little repetitive and the voice between scenes can get a little annoying but overall it's good.
