gorgeous visuals that constantly impress in how they bring the player along, like pages turning in a pop up book

similarly, gameplay wise, this is less a gamey 'Videogame' and more plaything, with each scene often having it's own simple and bespoke mechanic

maybe a little long (a few gameplay ideas return to diminishing effect), but Genesis Noir makes up for it with numerous standout moments that will stay with me

a simple story at the core, told lavishly through galactic scale theories and analogies; it can be a little text heavy but it's not essential reading to have a good time
