The story is completely driven by visuals, as there is no dialogue, which pushes you to really immerse yourself in the experience.

30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sound: Coccon has some nice otherworldly ambient soundtrack which is not very memorable (mostly due to the length of the game), but serves its artistic purpose.

Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Runs beautifully on Steam Deck, which for a game built around quiet focus and portability feels like the right way to experience it anyway.
