Torii

Torii is a solid indie game. It's pretty short, it requires no more than 2-3 hs to complete, but it's replayable for some collectibles and trophies. Gameplay mixes some puzzles and a very basic but effective stealth. It's not difficult at all, it's very accesible for all kind of players. Story is also simple, but powerful. It's told in a pretty weird way though: cutscenes (if we can call it that way) are presented in a rather unusual way, suddenly popping up and interrupting the gameplay, almost with the abruptness of a jumpscare. The visuals are another strong point of the game. They’re simple, but quite eye-catching, and it even reminded me of Journey in some specific parts. The soundtrack isn’t very present, but when it is, it’s well used.

Stealth/puzzle game with cool, surreal landscapes. Story is kind of sad when you piece it together.

Melancholic meditation.

Mała fajna gierka ze smutną historią. Fani walking simów z drobnymi elementami platformowymi zdecydowanie ją polubią.

Unfortunately doesn't quite hit the mark. While I think I enjoyed this game and I completed all of it,* I feel like I only understood about 60% of the disjointed storytelling. I also faced several unpleasant bugs throughout, including unwanted progression during exploration (which the collectables highly encourage), graphics settings that would not save between game areas and cutscenes, and being told I gathered all of the collectables when I didn't. In addition, the "puzzles" were all very simple and I was able to solve or brute force them all in a couple of minutes tops. Other reviewers mention puzzles taking a long time, I did not experience that at all. I also do not know what "stamina" system is being discussed in other reviews, I guess it was removed in an update? I thought world traversal was actually one of the nice, fluid features of the game. I think that with some more polish around mechanics and technical aspects this game I would have enjoyed it a lot more. * With the caveats of A) like I mentioned I didn't actually get all the collectables even though I was rewarded as if I did, and also B) I didn't understand the "Shiny" hunting (not sure if I was doing it wr…

Bonito juego con una linda historia a precio accesible!
