Blacktail, An Indie Masterpiece | Review
Blacktail is a hidden gem Focus Entertainment decided to stealth release last month. I didn’t hear much about it—never even knew it existed—until it randomly popped up on my PlayStation Store recommendations…I’m sure glad it did.
Blacktail is made by an indie studio named The Parasight, which follows the mythical tale of Baba Yaga. To get a little backstory on this, Baba Yaga basically tells the story of a witch who lives in the forest and, depending on your intentions, could lead to a good or bad experience.
The game takes this factor into account from the very beginning, and it designs your whole experience based on the choices made. Right away you are basically asked what your intentions are before heading off on the adventure: will you be on the light or dark side? Upon picking, you dive into this twisted fairy tale that gets better and better as you move along, while the choices keep piling up. There are choices to be made with characters you interact with on your journey. You can choose to assist them, tell them the truth, or lie to them. Some choices are very obviously good or bad, while others have you questioning what exactly you should say or do.
[...]
Overall I was expecting Blacktail to be an extremely basic title about a witch in the forest. I expected it to be cookie cutter and empty, but instead it ended up being one of the best experiences I’ve had. Blacktail has an extravagant open world filled with unique characters that will keep you guessing. The inner voices pushing and pulling you on your adventure are frightening and enjoyable, and the game is simply something you’d expect of a AAA developer. I would not miss this experience, it is the pinnacle experience of an indie title.Score: 4/5
