Ravenlok review​

• Publisher: Cococucumber
• Developer: Cococucumber
• Platform: Played on Xbox Series X
• Availability: Out on PC and Xbox on 4th May

Ravenlok is another gorgeous voxel adventure from Cococucumber, the delightfully named studio behind Echo Generation, only this time the turn-based combat is replaced by real-time slashing, and the retro-80s vibes get switched with a storybook world. The journey begins with your heroine chilling under a tree in the regular old world, before walking through a strange mirror and into the magical world of Dunia. A white rabbit quickly explains that she’s the nondescript chosen one, the titular Ravenlok, and you’re then swiftly sent to deal with the evil Queen plaguing the world...

The name reminds me of the nightmare map Ravenholm in Half-Life 2.

Well, it does have the same animal

However, you are indeed correct. The game map seems to inspired by that.

So it's more than just a coincidentally similar name. Interesting.
