-Lux æterna luceat eis, Domine. The light we cast Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is an immersive narrative experience, a walking simulator with a gripping story, beautiful graphics and stunning soundtrack. If you loved Dear Esther, Gone Home or What Remains of Edith Finch you will most likely appreciate what this game has to offer as well. Prepare for a dreamlike walk in 1984's Yaughton, an English village, where apparently everyone has vanished. Empty houses, cars left abandoned on similarly deserted streets: an inexplicable emptiness that would be terrifying, if only there wasn't such a mournful serenity to this desolation. -Requiem æternam dona eis, Domine. Despite Rapture's melancholic facade, watch out for lightborne poignance and the attrition that comes with everyday life. You may take a peek at vignettes from the lives of Yaughton's residents and bring their lowest points to light. In this most lonesome seance, bear witness: the people are gone, but their failures remain. Their shortcomings, forever part of the light they cast. It is human nature - to err is human , after all. As is the innate drive to seek answers. Much like you do. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3010038267 The answers are in the light . Always have been. But what else lies there with them, nesting in the brightest afterglow, waiting? On the fringes of the dimmest constellation, watching? There, in the everlasting, glaring light. Do you want to find out? -Et lux perpetua luceat eis. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/46070934/]Care to join me in prayer?

An unapologetic walking simulator where you explore the disjointed echoes of the lives of residents in a small UK village (and the surrounding area) following an event that occurred in June 1984. The Chinese Room has experimented with ambigious storytelling and unreliable narrators since their original Half-Life 2 mods (including "Dear Esther," later released as a standalone title) and it feels like they've really hit their stride here. This game is not for everyone, and there are no meaningful gameplay mechanics beyond specific trigger points for certain memories (which you must unlock using a "sweet spot" mechanic similar to lockpicking in other titles). You do not interact with anyone and exist only as an observer. But I did rather enjoy it and appreciated what it attempted to do. If the concept of a radio drama in a videogame strikes you with some interest, I'd recommend picking it up on sale - I regret that there isn't really enough content here to warrant a purchase at full price, though most of what is here is beautiful and well done. Acting and writing are largely very good, the visuals are stunning (the Lakeside campsite is hauntingly gorgeous in particular), and the music is fantastic. There are many examples of atmospheric storytelling and it's clear that the game was crafted with great care (I noticed reuse of assets in the different pubs but nothing major). I experienced lengthly loads, one instance of audio skipping and some minor framerate hits but nothing game breaking. I would recommend this game solely on the basis of how different an experience it is from most titles, and the strength of the story it largely succeeds in telling (though again, certain details remain intentionally vague and ambigious as The Chinese Room is historically inclined towards). 7/10.

On roads where only footsteps echo, it feels like eavesdropping on other people's lives. Without any flashy events, the story still burrows into the heart, and when the voices of the empty village finally come together, it feels less like playing a game and more like visiting a place.

IT'S A WALKING SIMULATOR! You don't get to do anything as a player. You just walk around and find out things. You don't fight, you don't jump or run. Just walk. And walk. Huge map. If you have the time and patience, you walk around more than necessary to progress the game. If you are in a hurry (lol) you take one specific route, indicated to you by the game. It's a heartbreaking story and it has great graphics. Very beautiful game. Boring if you're not the walking simulator kind of gamer, but beautiful.

This is not a game. It's a digital theatrical play. Before you go into it make sure you're not interrupted for about 4 hours as it's a rather slow pace experience. Play this game with headphones, make yourself something to drink. and dim the lights. After all is prepared, dive in. Absolutely recommended.
