Então… Gráficos estilizados e com personalidade… tanto gameplay quanto a arte lembra muito o jogo INSIDE… a história cativa muito na curiosidade para saber o que está ocorrendo, mas infelizmente com um fim insatisfatório e confuso, por se tratar de algo muito conceitual e muito abstrato… Gameplay é um walking simulator com puzzles e muita contemplação.

Existe muita filosofia nas suas entre linhas sobre importância (ou desimportância), caos, sociedade, solidão e companheirismo.

Enfim… é uma experiência ótima, mas com probleminhas crônicos de gameplay lento e de propósito do jogador em seu desfecho

It had a good opening and an interesting story.

Art direction, lighting, sound, cinematography, etc. were perfect. But I can't say the same about gameplay. It is really boring. It doesn't let you do anything except walk slowly and "solve" really easy puzzles. I won't even call them puzzles at this point. They are just some time killers (1 or 2 of them were okay-ish. but still not challenging.)



I would give it a 3 but the ending was a disaster.

---ENDING SPOILER---
I couldn't understand anything about how should I progress while playing the ending section. I looked up on the internet to understand what to do. But still, I didn't understand why I had to do that specific thing to progress.

yes I always wanted to be a power ranger honey

edit: shit I keep thinking about this game's 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴.

Its vision can be seen in retrospect, while remembering the impact of each one of the plot beats, and the sounds of all of the things that fall and break.

Decent puzzle adventure game. The environment and atmosphere were great and the puzzles were fun overall.

Didn't care much for the story.
