Universe For Sale

This game was such a breath of fresh air to me. The art is stunning, the story is fascinating and keeps you engaged the entire time. I loved slowly uncovering the mystery and dynamic between the two main characters; it takes awhile for the story to explicitly state anything so it’s nice to come up with your own theories of what’s happening. I don’t normally like point and click games because I feel like they are usually a lot of “oh I need to interact with everything and keep track of all my clues and make sure I’m doubling back for this, etc etc” but this game is relaxing to play while also revealing a very sad and meaningful story that leaves you feeling kind of heavy at the end (but also at peace). Game play is roughly 6 hours (unless you’re faster than me at figuring out the mechanics of the puzzles, didn’t realize for several hours that you can use the D-pad to change the shape of the universes, I was trying to drag my finger on the touch screen), but seems replayable, possibly an alternate ending depending on the choices you make?

[i] [b] Likes: [/b] [/i] Very cool universe, characters felt alive and unique, the plot was not easy to guess which I like! great puzzles, and dystopian feeling. The art style is outstanding [i] [b] Dislikes: [/b] [/i] x [i] [b] Achievements: [/b] [/i] Pretty straightforward, around 9 hours for full completion. [i] [b] Vote: [/b] [/i] 9/10

The game’s striking visuals and imaginative world-building make a strong first impression. Even though the story stretches itself thin, the experience remains engaging thanks to its memorable atmosphere.

woah, this game is a hidden gem, what a masterpiece

what a lovely game

maybe i am extraordinarily stupid but i did not figure out the mystery until the reveal. i thought the story was cool, the concept would make an amazing comic, and the actual game was fun.
