Review: Hermit and Pig

Hermit and Pig is the debut title from two-man studio Heavy Lunch, and features a pair of what I don’t think it’s unfair to describe as unlikely protagonists. Video games are – certainly more than any other medium, in my opinion – quite good at getting their audience to just go along with unusual protagonists, but I still have to admit my initial reaction to these two was a sort of: ‘wait, really?’ as opposed to any level of excitement at the prospect of putting myself into the main character’s presumably pretty nasty shoes.
