What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
For those made nervous by the unnerving atmosphere of Witness, or those turned off by the pretentious air of the plot of Witness, Taiji might be just the perfect solution.
The understated graphics also age well because they focus on functionality and elegance rather than technical spectacle.
Those seeking a strong narrative, character-driven storytelling, or action-oriented gameplay may struggle to connect with its highly abstract design.
If you would you pay 20 dollars for for a fan-made DLC with 10 hours of extra Witness puzzles, then you should certainly buy this game, which on top of that metric, is incredibly polished, glitch-free, and has a relaxing soundtrack with excellent environmental sound design as well.

Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
