For those whose hearts are still cold from this moving plot, rivaling even the bard himself, do not shy from the gameplay!

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
It discards narrative framing, exposition, and traditional progression trappings in favor of a relentless focus on movement, physics, and moment-to-moment decision-making.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
pih is everything that i loved. i've been suicidal for years but when i found out about pih, a shooter game based off my favorite animal, i was interested, when i first opened up the game it blew my mind. it was beautiful, amazing graphics, amazing models and the fact you get a gun with multiple bullets, a punching gun AND a grappling hook, the bosses are also really fun to go against, though the season 4 one was too easy, aside from that the games amazing and I would recommend getting it
