Huldufolf is a neat, albeit short experience. Leaning towards the folk horror genre, you are given the task to investigate a dig site as an archaeologist. I personally loved the game, especially because it's grounded on real Icelandic folklore. I would love to see a more fleshed out and larger experience, since it seems like there's more to it than what is shown. Hopefully the devs will continue the history at some point. The game plays with hiccups on Steam Deck.

You've told an interesting little tale of the Huldufólk with this one, I really enjoyed it. Did not expect that ending at all, our poor naïve archeologist..
I really enjoyed the game! Very small but very interesting!
