Our take on Yeomna : The Legend of Dongbaek
Rather than focusing only on combat and traversal, the game also makes village restoration part of Dongbaek’s progression. Form changes serve as tools for interacting with the environment, while collected scrolls connect exploration to the story.
What is Yeomna : The Legend of Dongbaek?
Yeomna is a 2D action platform game with Metroidvania-style exploration.
Players control Dongbaek, a half-demon exorcist sent to Seal Town to investigate cases in the Underworld. Combat and exploration lead through demon-filled areas as Dongbaek searches for a missing child, collects records, and uncovers hidden truths. Switching between human and feline forms lets Dongbaek evade traps and interact with objects to open routes. Players can find hidden areas containing skills and items, and change between a gun and a blade during fights. The game also includes scrolls tied to Dongbaek’s memories and Yeomna’s secrets, characters and demons inspired by Korean folklore, and village rebuilding with help from its residents.
