Sea of Solitude tackles a topic that I've had personal experience with for quite a while; check the title if you really need cluing in. Sadly, its impact as a form of entertainment is as positive as it is negative. You'll be on the edge of your seat navigating Kay through tense situations as well as groaning since she moves like a ton of bricks. Your ears will be graced by its music and sound design and then they'll get tortured with voice acting that's okay at best; ear-grating at worst. And, finally, just when you think you're witnessing a masterpiece, everything starts to buckle under technical glitches and a conclusion that's disappointingly simple for what this project attempts to cover. It's a beautiful piece of art that fails to hide the smudges that plague the entire canvas.
