Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
32 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Nice atmosphere that reminded me of the videogame Journey,telling the story with images and gameplay instead of dialog or text.The game is about 2-3 hours max,but its a nice ride all the way and its free!
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
23 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
I actually think the short length suits the story, but it also means the game does not have much room to develop its mechanics.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
18 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Both the music and the graphics are pretty, with the latter looking a bit low-tech, like something you would find in older console platformers, which only adds to the overall charm.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Dim colours and a moderate amount of polygons together with soothing piano music and subdued sound effects generate an atmosphere akin to a hushed dream.
