Obsolete in the existence of Rebirth. No reason to play this besides nostalgia

Let me say this out of the gate: i was not aware this game was made by an ARG enthusiast. I bought this game expecting what was shown in the screenshots. I was very pleased with what i got. Until act 2.

I loved everything about act 1. The mystic atmosphere, the graphics, the gameplay, the room escape puzzles. I also presumed it was a roguelike; it was not. Act 1 ends about 5 hours into the game and the quality nosedives.

You are thrown into act 2 very suddenly, with no regards to entroducing new mechanics. Battles had a big infuriating spike in difficulty due to me not knowing what is going on. I just skimmed through act 2 as fast as i could and thankfully its shorter than act 1.

Act 3 is where the game, more or less, comes back to the style of the game that was act 1. It's not as good but its still fun. Which is not something i could say about act 2. Thus a BIG downgrade in the rating. I really wish act 1 was just a PROPER full game twice the length of the original.

This review contains spoilers

It's... alright. Some cutscenes and scenes are awkwardly long and the storytelling is Disney level.
Spoilers:
The whole point of it all revolves around the control of the characters though. And when one of the brothers dies it does make a much bigger impact because of that. Sadly, the rest of the game just feels like its there only to build up to that moment and doesnt stand on its own.

Adult equivalent of the baby sensory videos.

A cute little adventure to the top of the mountain. Short and to the point.

The only thing i remember is the annoying MC which i desperately wanted to shut up. Overhyped bioshock imitator which was entirely forgotten a month after release. Also combat is pretty bad

The eastern-european platformer for the kids that didnt know a mario. Really quirky and charming in its own weird way.

The only game that made me laugh so hard when my character died besides TF2. Probably a frustrating game if you want to complete it, but its a great time with friends

Friend got me to play this and... man, was it boring. Felt really lost the whole time as to what im even doing.

Subnautica, but someone that came here before you, was really thirsty.

This is in the top 5 of survival horrors. Must play

This is really more of an art piece. So i'll review it as such.

...It's like playing with modeling clay while on LSD.

A charming and a really quirky game that takes a lot of inspiration from Undertale. The "gameplay" is all over the place, ranging from the epic Super Sonic-like boss fight to... programming problems.You know, the ones they make you do in middle school? Yeah.
But i cant really complain. The game is free and if you dont have anything better to play, i'd say it's worth it!
