Story is good. Music is great. It's short, but that was expected. Considering the cheap price I didn't mind it being below 2 hours.3 found this helpful
Interesting game, nice short story and nice soundtrack3 found this helpful
Next of Kin is a light and relaxing adventure game, perfect for players who want something simple and easy to pick up without dealing with complex mechanics. It’s a great choice for those moments when you just want to unwind and enjoy a calmer experience. Featuring simple graphics with a retro-inspired style, the game leans into a sense of nostalgia while staying accessible. Its gameplay is straightforward and easy to understand, focusing on simplicity—though it doesn’t support using the arrow keys as an alternative control option.2 found this helpful
Lovely short story about mental health.2 found this helpful
a great story2 found this helpful
If you like story driven games, this is a short gem for you. Perfect to play through on a free evening. I was made aware of this series after talking to Jakob one of the developers very cool, humble guy. He didn't promise too much. I shed a tear in the end as this story is very relatable and touches on important subjects concerning mental health. I'm looking forward to the second installement.1 found this helpful
