"Two Falls (Nishu Takuatshina) isn&s;t going to blow your mind with complicated gameplay systems or mechanics that will blow your mind. Because it cares, understands, and is creatively clear, it wants to tell you a story—two stories, to be exact."

"Two Falls tells the stories of Jeanne, a French settler making her way to Quebec, and Maikan, a young hunter from the indigenous Innu community. While told separately, these stories intertwine and overlap in impactful ways, making for an enjoyable …"

"Two Falls lands as this near-masterpiece narrative that prioritizes heart over polish. It&s;s hopeful without naivety, a bridge-building story I&s;m glad exists, especially when games like this nudge us toward empathy in tough times. Rough edges and all, it earns …"
