User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
The art, the music, the story, the gameplay... everything of the highest quality The game is a beautiful allegory of the fear of death and terminal illness delivered without a single line of legible or understandable dialogue. Everything is shown with imagery and environmental storytelling making it a perfect game for people who love to explore One of those video games that remind you this is an art form and you can feel how much heart, passion and soul went into its making Some people might dislike the game because of the controls or certain design choices but personally I had no problem getting used to playing with both keyboard-mouse and controller and I feel the design choices make perfect sense so it was no problem for me
