Review afrueh 1/5 · Jul 2, 2013

Tried to get into this one, but just couldn't. The art direction was pretty average, and the game's core mechanic of 2D exploration just wasn't engaging enough to hook me. Ended up wandering around aimlessly for several sessions without making substantial progress. The story was fairly vague; might get more detailed as the game goes on, but didn't leave me …

Completely forgot about adding this (played it about three/four years ago) and yet now that I remember, how could I have forgotten? It's smart, engaging, well-written, and everything that a game about exploration should be--that is, full of beauty and discovery. Need to revisit.
