Giants (2026)

SPOILER WARNING: This game had me very curious and intrigued. I wandered between the apartments, perusing every drawer and solving every puzzle. Almost got 100%. The slow growing of the fleshy substance added another layer of weirdness. But, I must say. I really wonder why Pidge hung himself. Is it canon? Also, I was not sure what to do with the diamonds and water pistol that I found. Any suggestions? This game is a BARGAIN!

Giants is the kind of game that doesn’t have a specific goal, it’s the exploration and journey that it focuses on. It won't tell you what you need to do, so you discover things at your own pace. The atmosphere is pretty heavy, but unless you’re a scaredy cat like me, nothing will frighten you aside from the look of the residents of the building you’re investigating. There are puzzles throughout the rooms, but they are entirely optional as they unlock achievements, but the actual purpose of the game is more just walking around and taking in the setting and getting a glimpse into how the residents live. The ending felt abrupt, I’m not really sure what the reasoning behind that is, but I still enjoyed my time with the game. I've been struggling to get one of the achievements, but the rest were easy enough! King of the slugs/10.

This game is a bit like an artwork with beautiful aesthetics and many hidden supprises to be discovered. If you do nothing else, please listen to all the CDs.

This is a very nice and quirky small game, I really like the visual, the characters and the sound design. Well done!

I really liked the atmosphere and character models. I loved getting glimpses into the lives of the various residents in this apartment block. I was a little confused about what my goal was during my first run through and only realized after the fact that there was likely no real objective rather than to observe and document what I saw. I'll have to give the game another go with this in mind and see what stories I can infer (also in reading other comments there's maybe some puzzles to solve too?) The game left me wanting more. Which I don't see as necessarily a downside, but as a proof of concept and I'm excited to see what this developer decides to create next. The setting and atmosphere alone could absolutely work in a larger scale horror game for example
