Confront the reality of loss in this little adventure. For more detailed description and plot explanation, visit my blog (the explanation link). Also should you get stuck, there's a detailed walkthrough in the link mentioned before.
NOTE: The gameplay lasts about 10-15 minutes. The theme is not in the mechanics, but in the story - it may take a while before you figure out the meaning.
Very well done. Played through to the end. The mechanics and sparse environments worked very well with the theme. Great use of silhouettes to allow the player to project there own ghosts onto.
Oh Wow, I was not expecting to feel playing all these games.
I played it all the way through. Though the puzzles were interesting they weren't mind-blowing, though the adventure setting was ominous and intriguing it wasn't anything terribly new or exciting and didn't terribly capture the theme in my opinion.
Instead the element I liked the most was the way the narrative was weaved into the game and I felt like I was exploring a tiny fraction of a very complicated situation.
It was a very well rounded experience, it did what it set out to do and did it well! A bite-sized morsel of adventure with a satisfying ending.
A couple of things I noticed a little awry though: in the anger level the note at the end says "trust si such a fragile thing". Certain objects/characters don't logically change their responses after you fulfil certain criteria, such as locks on the anger level and the logic puzzle level still saying they're locked even though I just unlocked them and can move freely through them, as well as the depression man still wanting a poem even after I gave him one.
Those small things however did nothing to detract from this heartfelt, honest and moving piece of work. I really enjoyed it, well done!
Very nice story, even despite the lack of sound, which is generally a large component in the mood aspect, you did create a very nice sense of atmosphere. As for the story, it kept me engaged all along. Puzzles at first seemed a bit odd, but then it all clicked and made perfect sense. Great job!
this game had a whole bunch of atmosphere, i really liked that sort of sparse melody in the background. kept me intrigued enough to play all the way through!
I like the quiet/introspective games just as much if not more than the action-based ones. Especially the ones that have really original takes on the theme given. Great entry.
