Nodding Heads Games created their first
action-adventure video game titled Raji: An Ancient Epic. The game was
exclusively released on 18 August 2020 for Nintendo Switch and on 15 October
2020 for Microsoft Windows via PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Epic Games Store.
The game is based on Indian history and Hindu
mythology, and its impressive presentation made the game popular among the
fans. However, the disappointing ending and short run-time have a negative
impact on the game.
Raji: An Ancient Epic is set in ancient India and
follows Raji, who lives with her younger brother Golu and they both work as the
circus performer. One day on the festival of Rakshabandhan, a group of demons
with their leaders and lord Mahabalasura surrounded the circus. They slaughter
everyone in the circus and kidnap the children to use them for some unknown and
dark purpose. During the chaos, Raji tries to save her beloved brother from the
demons, but she fails and is left for dead.
Later, Raji wakes up and can not find her brother
Golu, who is also missing, like the rest of the children. She determines to
save and rescue her younger brother and prays to the goddess Durga, known as
the goddess of war. Goddess Durga gives Raji a sacred weapon to save her
brother along with other children.
Nodding Heads Games might not have enough budget to
make a game of the modern God of War, but it has appreciably achieved the
historical and mythological wonder. The game also includes various voiceovers
from Lord Vishnu and Goddess Durga in different parts of the game. The creators
also engaged the game with many other Hindu mythological stories as the plot.
The blessings of legend Garuda, Shakti, and many others help and teach Raji
through paintings and artworks which provide players with an engaging game
sequence.
Overall, Raji: An Ancient Epic is not very exciting,
but that does not mean it is enjoyable. The weapons in this game are distinct,
simple, and very empowering. The game’s plot is very casual and provides a
straight path to the players other than in a few sequences when things occasionally
mix up.
Raji is a noticeably short game of five hours, and
the game ends at a cliffhanger with well-paced storytelling. However, this is
the first game from Nodding Heads, and perhaps fans can expect more from the
Indian team.
