I consider myself to be a bit of a “graphics snob,” so it always catches my attention when there’s a game with rave reviews about its graphics, and the actual game play is equally as important. Finished the remainder of the game during a blizzard. The whole thing changed for me when I tried it on my iPad. I started to play it on my iPhone - not fun. Absolutely immersive and challenging and mind boggling. You can play the whole game just by following/working out the explicit directions in the manual, and you’d be well within the narrative to do so. Our hero is learning the ropes, after all. This means nothing is miserably tedious or too hard because the answers are built in- not just to the game, but to the narrative. For any challenge, it gives instructions, a simple clue, or the whole solution. The manual itself is a work of art, and it’s only a piece of the game.

The world is so small, and it feels small, but it is also vast and filled with familiar mysteries. A tiny girl moves through an incredibly textured world using her wits and the manual given to her by her granddad.

This game is visually and intellectually and artistically awe-inspiring.
