A very beautiful narrative adventure, with captivating art and music that filled my heart from beginning to end. You get to spend the day with Sumire and at the same time learn a lot about love, friendship, family and especially grief. You get to be a good person or not, but I personally didn't enjoy the low karma route. Still, lovely little game.

“Sumire” is a cozy short narrative driven adventure about grief and faulty relationships. The story is nice and simple enough but it’s the beautiful art style and lovely soundtrack the main reason to stick to it.

Un juego sobre reconectar con un mundo que ya no es el que era. Es algo que resuena con todos, porque lo vivimos en algún momento.
El arte es precioso. Los personajes bien marcados con su personalidad.
Es un viaje corto sobre experimentar un día perfecto.
Y realmente para que sea perfecto tiene que torcerse y ponerse difícil. Atravesar momentos donde hay dolor, tristeza, ira, venganza...
Es una maravilla y en poco tiempo te cuenta un relato muy bonito.
El final se me queda un poco soso. Es decir, tiene lo que prometía y parece un final redondo, sin fisuras, pero hay algo, quizás el arte del paisaje final o no sé el que.

Sumire é um joguinho bem fofo, com umas boas mensagens. A narrativa é bem boa, e com certeza o ponto forte dele, sendo até bem tocante.
A gameplay acaba sendo meio chatinha pelos puzzles serem óbvios demais, mas por conta disso acaba sendo algo bem secundário pra guiar a experiência, mesmo que as vezes andar fique meio tedioso.
No geral é um jogo divertido

Name another 2D side scroller where you move to the left side of the screen, you can't! It's a beautiful narrative adventure game with a heartwarming story, except when you choose not to. Oh yes, the game also has an evil route where you can play as the most nasty little girl imaginable.
Not a game I usually play, but I've seen so much good reviews. After playing it, I understand now. Great story, and very relatable moments. A good short story-driven game to be in your feelings.

With attractive art and charming characters; this little scrapbook-like story is about understanding emotions and the impact of choices.
Sumire’s beloved grandmother has just died. Her father drove off one day to never return. And her mother refuses to get out of bed. Then she dreams about her grandmother trying to tell her something, only to wake up with a mysterious seed. Sumire plants the seed and in the morning she has a talking flower! Flower has just one day to live and wants Sumire to take them out on a perfect day in exchange for revealing what Grandma was trying to say. Will Sumire have a perfect day, or will she just trudge along hoping to get what she wants?
The story covers death, grief, depression, first love, self doubt, and bullying.
Visuals
Sumire is one of the prettiest games I have ever played. The artstyle is freaking gorgeous. I loved the colors! It’s like a watercolor storybook.
The characters are flat, 2D sprites, almost like paper dolls. Meanwhile, the backgrounds are similarly flat but also 3D, kind of like Paper Mario, but much prettier.
Sound Effects + Music
I was not a fan of the background music in Sumire, which is unfortunate given how visually stunning the game is. It was the same few notes over and over again, which got annoying before Sumire even left her yard.
I did really like the song during the end credits though.
Gameplay + Controls
Sumire is a simple narrative driven point-and-click adventure. You move Sumire around the environment, interacting with objects and other characters. If she can interact a ? will appear. There will also be sparkly spots she can walk over to to collect coins. Characters will give her fetch quests while she travels with Flower, which you are free to ignore if you wish. In fact, there is an achievement for helping no one!
There are also mini games along the way including stealth missions, a card game, a maze, riddles, and more. Nothing was too challenging, but it was nice to break up the walking and talking.
Replayability
Sumire is a short adventure, making it easy to play again if you wish. Plus there are plenty of achievements, some of which cannot be completed during a single playthrough. I will definitely be going through it again someday to see what happens if Sumire goes through the day being cold and closed off instead.
Overall
I loved my short time with Sumire! It’s a gorgeous game, has a great story, and is actually fun too!
