Luto

Checkpoint Gaming: 9 / 10 by Jarrod Harrison

For an independent studio's debut game, Luto strongly delivers on Broken Bird Games' ethos of delivering deep narrative experiences that reflect both their passion for video games but also great stories.

Use a Potion: 9.5 / 10

Luto is a gripping and refreshingly bold take on psychological horror, blending clever environmental puzzles with a narrative that’s as unpredictable as it is emotionally resonant. Its looping design, oppressive atmosphere, and unsettling narration come together to create a game that constantly keeps you questioning what’s real and what isn’t, and whilst it is a relatively short experience, it’s one that’s packed with moments that feel both inventive and deeply haunting. For fans of horror that values atmosphere and ingenuity over cheap scares, Luto is a must-play, though be warned: it’s an experience that will linger in your mind long after you’ve escaped its twisting corridors.

Duuro Magazine: by Krist Duro

Luto is a slow burn, yes, but that's exactly why it works so well. Every moment is deliberate, every sound and visual cue carefully placed to make you second-guess yourself. In a sea of horror games that rely on over-the-top monsters or constant loud noises, Luto stands out as something more thoughtful, more personal, and ultimately more haunting. I highly recommend it, just don't play it alone at night.
