User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
The game has a pretty unique design. Instead of exploring a map, you spend most of the game riding an elevator that takes you up into the sky. You go up floor by floor, and on each floor you meet different characters and have different puzzles to solve. I also really like that each floor is labeled with a different year in the future, so you’re always curious about what you’re going to see next. You also need to find blue spheres to activate the elevator and continue to the next floor. The puzzles start off pretty easy, but they get harder as you progress. Some of the later puzzles are pretty tricky, and there is no option to skip them. There is also an achievement for collecting 35 photos. For the last photo, you need to talk to the old man at the lookout. So if you are going for the achievement, don’t leave right away. Make sure you remember to pick up the photo before you leave.
A great escape from boss fights, precision platforming and the accompanying frustrations in this relaxing game of logical puzzles, colorful scenes and artifact searches to help your character blast off into space, one step at a time up a very long elevator. I'm really liking all the Cotton Game productions I've taken a stab at so far and have not been disappointed yet.
The entire game has no dialogues, and the story is told using pictures, but it's more than enough to put you in tears. Every time the elevator goes up, you will enter into a new world and solve a variety of puzzles. Each puzzle that you solve will reward you with a blue sphere so the elevator can travel upward. This game is more than just elevator travel or puzzle-solving. It has a touching and beautiful story behind. The elevator also brings the main character back to his childhood memories before the unfortunate event. Despite the main character having to revisit all those bittersweet memories, it's also a meaningful journey that fulfils his dream of escaping to a happy life.
