I didn't know what I was signing up when I started playing Rime, but what I had seen looked beautiful and I was down for a short puzzle game. The further I got, the more impressed I became at the size of this "little" game, and the thought, creativeness, and attention to detail the devs put into it. As a game, it does a great job of respecting the mind of the player, allowing them to teach themselves through game play, experimentation, and creative level design. Each new concept is discovered, practiced, and then mastered in a gradual and creative way, and previous mechanics are frequently brought back to continue to challenge and engage the player. I found myself challenged consistently, pushed to grow, but never frustrated. Solving this games puzzles was rewarding and thought provoking. The story itself is well written and beautiful, slowly unfolding as the player explores and learns, ending in a almost reveal of tragic proportions. Tears may be shed. The graphics for Rime are simple, colorful (until they arn't), and elegant. Each level you visit has a different feel, but they all follow the same basic principles that helps the story feel smooth and all a part of the same world. The brights are beautiful and the dark moments really work in juxtaposition to them bring a full spectrum of emotions to the player throughout the story, The audio is next level. A beautiful score accompanies the player through every moment of the game, swelling with joy, leading with anticipation, and drowning in sorrow. I don't believe I ever found myself bored for my entire play though (around 5 hours) in any aspect of the game, but particularly musically. The soundscape is well designed, continuing to clue you in when you are on the right path, when something is happening, and when you discover something new. I could sit in the menu and just chill TBH, absolutely stunning audio. The only reason I didn't give this game a 10/10 is because I wish I knew before I left the first world that I couldn't come back to it. I wasn't done exploring and was bummed I couldn't go back and keep looking for things. 9/10 Shrimps: 🍤 🍤 🍤 🍤 🍤 🍤 🍤 🍤 🍤 🧀 Rough 1st time play through: 4-6 hours Games like this: HOA seems to strike a similar chord with me. If you haven't played it, give it a try. If you liked it, this one will also feel great!

Rime is a charming little game about a boy who wakes up on the beach of an uncharted island and begins to explore. Along the way, he finds a little fox spirit who helps him solve puzzles and guides him along the correct path. Rime 's world is very beautiful, with a distinct Mediterranean flair to its architecture. Its music is soothing yet melancholy, adding to its isolated atmosphere. The gameplay is simple: you run, jump, and climb over obstacles. You solve numerous puzzles to find the way forward. Rime is very good at deftly teaching you the mechanics, subtly directing you to figure out the way things work before gradually increasing the difficulty on its puzzles. None of them ever get too difficult to figure out, and there are numerous collectible items you can find on your journey, some of which help flesh out the boy's backstory. In terms of story, Rime features no dialogue whatsoever, rather letting its imagery tell the story for it. I quite like this approach, as it still feels unique especially in today's game market where stories are more commonly told in cinematic fashion. For the most part, Rime 's story is hardly present, with brief glimpses of something more happening behind the curtain. I don't have anything against games that take a traditional cinematic approach, but Rime 's light touch was definitely a breath of fresh air. And then the game's ending decided to systemically destroy me as a human being. I'll try not to spoil too much here. But the story is an allegory for grief, so it is dealing with some pretty heavy subject matter. I knew this going in, but that knowledge did nothing to lessen the impact of its ending, its final twist feeling like a knife to the gut. But that is the beauty of art, to be able to convey an aspect of the human experience, no matter how grim or depressing. Rime isn't perfect however. The second section in the desert feels like it lasts just a little too long. And the jumping feels a bit too stiff, leading to some uncertainty when performing jumps. It's a very slow burn of a game as well, so some might find themselves turned off of the game before hitting the end of its roughly five and a half hour runtime. But overall it is a charming game with a meaningful story. If you're a fan of indie games, I recommend you give this one a shot. Maybe wait for a sale if you feel that thirty bucks is a bit too steep of a price for the runtime it offers.

This game is a remarkable artistic work that successfully maintains a unique atmosphere and feeling throughout. I would recommend this game for those who are looking for a distinctive experience in the vein of Journey, Abzu and Lost Ember.
