About ETHEREAL
ETHEREAL is a profound experience (winner of the Audience Award on IGF 2019 where it was also nominated for its audio and sound design) where you have to find your way within an intricate and abstract series of levels, using different kinds of mechanics that allows you to modify the environment or the direction of your character movement. Each corner of its world has been carefully designed to communicate without any text and expose a novel puzzle to solve without time pressure, evoking an introspective state of mind.

Developed by Nicolás Recabarren and Tomás Batista, from Nonsense Arts, an indie game studio from Argentina.

Like it was hard? :p We all have different brains. Mine looks at ♥♥♥♥ like this and goes, hold my beer. It is beautiful and well crafted so I'd recommend it for that alone.1 found this helpful
Challenging, and feels like a maze at first, but genuinely becomes a puzzle as you start to understand the mechanics. I do wish it had an undo and the ability to backtrack to previous levels. Would love to see that as an update but not enough to write a negative review. The concept is clever and worth playing. 100%ed in 4 hours. If you care about achievements, look at the guide first, at least to know which levels the secrets are in because you cannot backtrack.
Great, challenging fun.
oooooooooooo this one hurt my head a bit
Unreal
I like it when a game makes me feel smart :]
