The Other Half

The story is good, and quite sensitive, as the disclaimer at the beginning of the game warns.

The art and music are beautiful, the gameplay is simple but not boring, the difficulty is adjustable, and it's incredibly clever how the characters and their surroundings are all metaphors telling a deeper story.

The play control is smooth and straightforward, and the combat demands focus and rhythm to get right.

Also, it's staggeringly beautiful, not just because of the graphics style, but because of the way everything flows together.

The voice acting was overall good, I liked the voices and how they said things.

It's a top-down view, narrative focused game which provides just the right level of difficulty on the second from hardest setting, which makes you feel invested in what is happening, and you pick up on the story elements all the more I find in the welcome reprieve between combats.
