- Really nice looking game. Nice use of environmental puzzles and tranquil audio. The graphics style reminds me of For the King.
- Simple and beautiful. Wonderful sound design. Excellent level design. Although I found it annoying to begin with, the minimal instructions are an excellent idea. Although – I’d probably prompt the user with how to open their journal :p Ghost mode is a cool feature although was tricky to find! I found it by chance rather than design, so might need a touch more signposting.
- Very aesthetically pleasing game with a nice chilled out atmosphere. The gameplay is quite basic and lacks depth though. This feels like the perfect kind of game for a strong voiced narrative or implied context to hook players into the game world. Without either of those things though, the actions that the player undertakes throughout the game don't feel as meaningful as they could be. Fetch puzzles felt like a bit of a chore and some indication of where to progress next (perhaps using audio) would have elevated the experience.
