Narrative-driven exploration Emotional storytelling Rich in atmosphere Outstanding visual design14 found this helpful
Replayed this game in VR after abandoning it back when it was first released. It's much better in VR (although some visual elements are missing) and although the world is amazing, the game itself falls kinda flat and I can't put my finger on it. Still a decent 1st person walking sim with occasional (optional) puzzles, great music, voicework and visuals. 7.9 out of 10.1 found this helpful
Okay game. Beautiful concept but mediocre execution. Moving story and nice music, graphics somewhat okay but glitchy, Gameplay is nothing more than a walking simulator that's too slow for comfort and the "puzzles" are meh at best, frustrating at times. Recommended for the concept and story, but don't expect anything special gameplaywise.1 found this helpful
Very beautiful game with a captivating story.
very emotional story about a family that brings tears to your eyes at the end of the game. puzzles not bad, could have been more i think. music is annoying. not bad game
[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43083373/]Clever games curator review: 3/10[/url]. Walking sim that tells a story by peppering the landscapes you walk through with 1-2 sentence text bubbles. The story is rather bad; the developers have confused "dark/difficult themes" for "deep+meaningful". The darkness of the topic makes it not so forgettable, but it's certainly not interesting. Meanwhile, in order to keep the walking sim part more interesting, the dullest puzzles have been added. Mostly they consist of pushing every button you find, but sometimes include "only push the yellow buttons." Graphically, the game isn't bad. It's drenched in neon bloom, and the choice of scenes/settings seems completely arbitrary, but I never minded looking at the screen. If the rest of the game had been better, this could have been fun. What's striking is that a lot of work was put into this mediocre product. Building all those levels must have taken forever. Perhaps the developers didn't realize how unmotivating their story and puzzles were.
