The first tree is a short videogame all focused on two parallel stories, one played by the gamer and one narrated by the man who was living the dream. There isn't much gameplay, is just a walking simulator with a fox, but it has a good art direction and an inspired music. Speaking about the cons, surely the camera is a bit bugged, and its movements aren't so good as the rest. Maybe don't worth the full price, but in sale I would recommend it.

Definitely issues with the jumping mechanic; you can tell the creator is more movie maker than game designer, but the game is beautiful, atmospheric, and poignant with a phenomenal soundtrack to match. If you're a fan of Dear Esther like I am (and if you can get over the jump mechanic issue), you'll thoroughly enjoy this.
