A true passion for the Rarámuri culture shines through, as does an equal appreciation for games like Ocarina of Time. Yet what matters most after I’ve put the controller down is that Mulaka is a showcase of something I wasn’t already familiar with. So often are we treated to games that tell the same stories from the same types of people that we begin to feel like we’re simply playing echoes of our own pasts. In a time where people want to build walls, Mulaka chooses to create a bridge. One between us and the Terahumara people. I can’t help but be thankful, but on top of that, it’s a damn fun game in its own right.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamespew.com\u002F2018\u002F05\u002Fmulaka-review-no-urban-legend\u002F","2018-05-31","8\u002F10",80,{"id":81,"author":82,"outlet":85,"summary":90,"review_url":91,"review_date":92,"original_score":93,"normalized_score":94},46226,{"id":83,"name":84},90,"Tyler Treese",{"id":86,"logo":87,"name":88,"website_url":89,"score_format":43},37,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fplaystation-lifestyle-logo.png","Playstation Lifestyle","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.playstationlifestyle.net\u002F","Mulaka takes inspiration from northwestern Mexico, and it’s easy to see why.
