What Children of Morta is
Children of Morta is an adventure game developed by Dead Mage and released in 2019. It was published by 11 bit studios. It is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Android, iOS, Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unity.
The premise, in the publisher's words
The story takes place in a distant land but copes with themes and emotions common to all of us: love and hope, longing and uncertainty, ultimately loss... and sacrifice we are willing to make to save the ones we care the most for. Ultimately, it's about a family of heroes standing against the encroaching darkness.
How it plays
It is played from a bird view / isometric perspective. Its themes are action and fantasy. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Co-operative, Multiplayer and Single player. There are 45 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Children of Morta holds a critic score of 83 out of 100. That places it above 78% of the 7,527 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2019 averaged 69, so it scored 14 points above the year average. Players rate it 77, 6 points lower than critics did — a gap worth knowing about before you buy.
How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 18.6 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 25.5 hrs, roughly 1.4 times the length of the critical path. At its current cheapest price of $3.29, that works out to about $0.18 per hour of the main story, or $0.13 per hour if you finish everything.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for 2.8 GHz Dual Core CPU, 4 GB RAM and GeForce GTX 660, Radeon R7 370 or equivalent with 2 GB of video RAM. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 2GB.
