April 2026

This should be a neutral review, but I had to pick positive or negative. In the end I went with positive, because I don't feel I wasted my time with this game and enjoyed a lot of it. The positives: I think there's a lot of like about this game - its melancholic and meditative feel, taking photos and sound recordings of the world really makes you pay attention, and sticking stuff in your journal is handled nicely. Riding your bike is "ok", at times it's fun - other times you'll get wedged on a rock and have the annoyance of getting on/off/on/off the bike until you get clear of the obstacle. The negatives: My main issue is that I found the story a bit weak. I feel there are lots of ideas, and a strong desire to build a world - but I didn't really like a lot of the "mystical" elements. Some of the character models are really odd too - a mix of humans mixed with weird oversized nose goblins. And it jumps from being "observe the world" game (which I liked) to suddenly being a "make a couple of choices to finish the game" that felt like a rushed ending. There are some good characters in this - like the boy and his mum - and I'd have loved to have see longer narrative arcs with them, to connect even further and tie their stories to yours. I think if I had to score it, it'd be a 7/10. Nice, but not quite as powerfully emotional as it could have been.

Reading a Giniro Natsuo poetry collection makes me think, "How wonderful," and makes me want to walk through that world. This game feels like someone took that exact feeling and shaped it into a form. It is truly a work of art. There is no premise of multiple playthroughs, nor are there branching paths. Quite simply, this is a monumental work—a landmark achievement in the fifty-year history of video games, having finally stripped away the conventional definition of "play" to reach completion. The Japanese localization was also magnificent. Every poem, line of dialogue, and monologue felt natural. The voice acting was calm and grounded, with a core of strength, quite different from mainstream Japanese games these days. Even the handwriting-style font was exquisite. I offer my heartfelt gratitude and respect for such a conscientious localization.

I tried to avoid learning about the game beforehand and was rewarded with such an interesting worldbuilding and narrative. Having you explore bewitching landscapes for you to indulge your curiosity at your own pace. To learn and imagine what was about this mystical valley, its people, and their culture. Such a creative way for the player to engage with the themes of the story meaningfully and nurture an interest in the world and setting.

A gorgeous game that lets you explore ideas of nostalgia and coming to peace with things ending. Characters immediately capture you, whether through their brilliant designs, or their unique take on (the end of) the world, or just the fact that they'd be perfect to photograph just there . The freedom you're given to take the game at your own pace is so wonderful -- you can take as long as you want, but your built-in ability to take notes and visual reminders means you'll never forget what you're up to. If I had one gripe with the game, it's that I wish we could have written our own things in the scrapbook now and then, but I understand why that's a freedom we weren't given. This game's artistic force is so strong, the voice of the main character so clearly written, that to give the player a blank page would diminish that character somewhat. I found this game through Jacob Geller's video on "Art in the Pre-Apocalypse", then promptly forgot about it for a couple of years so that I had a chance to forget the spoilers discussed in the video. I don't think I needed to -- this game stands so strongly in its essence that to be "spoiled" is really no big deal. You could know the plot of SEASON back to front, inside out, upside down, and still not understand what makes it incredible without experiencing it. This game knows what it wants to do, and lets you do it in Your way. Play this game if you want an excuse to meditate. Play this game if you played Disco Elysium and were enraptured to the concept of the Pale. Play this game if you're missing someone, or something, or somewhen. Play this game if you want to look at the world with new eyes.
