Its an amazing game!! very unique story that had me hooked from the beginning to end, probably one of the best I will ever experience. I am not playing again though, for my sanity
It's not really a game to be honest. It's more like a reading a book in slideshow but it's free.
I didn't have any expectations about this game, just thought it's some sorta love story. It was just that but you are paralyzed and you witness the story by laying in a hospital bed and people visit you. The paralysis of the main character creates an interesting narrative. It's a story of becoming aware of the situation and how it affects your close ones. It impacts you and you begin to think you are in the situation yourself. You can choose from variety of different dialogue options and while they don't change anything, you still hope they would. The game is really sad and impactful, if you like visual novels I recommend checking A Hint Of Purple, you might cry a bit, so bring tissues.

this game is beautiful and heartbreaking. I felt immersed. while not the same... it allowed me to feel some of my own grief and fear around disability and feeling separate. I don't know how to explain. I would definitely recommend this to everyone. it's beautiful.
A Hint of Purple — короткая визуальная новелла о любви и искусстве: парализованная художница Майя пытается принять новую реальность и сохранить отношения, ведя внутренние диалоги со своим мозгом. Плюсы: эмоциональная глубина — история подаётся искренне и тонко, а внутренние монологи с Префронтальной корой придают нарративу оригинальность; уважение ко времени игрока — прохождение занимает около часа, и за этот короткий срок игра успевает раскрыть героиню и тронуть. Минусы: ограниченная вариативность — несмотря на видимость выбора, финал практически не меняется, что снижает ценность повторных прохождений; минимальная интерактивность — по сути это чтение текста с редкими выборами, что подойдёт не всем. Итог: тёплая и пронзительная новелла, которая за час успевает рассказать больше, чем иные игры за десять, но тем, кто ждёт от визуальных новелл развилок и гейплея, её формат может показаться слишком скромным.
This was amazing and i would definitely recommend. It is a very short visual novel and there is only one ending so don't get this if that isn't your type of game. What i love about this (spoiler?) is that it shows how Maya being paralysed and not being able to communicate with anyone means that everyone else will do the same thing no matter what and i think that is just a great way to portray it. It's also gay and we love that
Se analisarmos a mídia videogame iremos todos chegar na conclusão que o diferencial dentre as outras artes é a interação com um mundo e como suas atitudes e ações podem moldar o espaço físico e também influenciar os personagens e até pessoas reais que nele vivem. Essa é a principal essência do videogame como mídia. Mas e se no videogame você não pudesse se mexer e interagir de forma física com as coisas ao seu redor? É esse o elemento que Dormin (dev) quer explorar, usando uma narrativa que pega qualquer um desprevinido. A Hint of Purple, à primeira vista, parece muito uma carta de amor ao Disco Elysium — um dos meus jogos favoritos, por sinal — mas logo se vê que é muito injusto comparar os dois. Purple é um jogo que foca em um único tema e martela isso na sua cabeça do começo ao fim. Somos capazes de viver nossa vida inteira por outra pessoa? Conseguimos derrubar a barreira das diferenças e abraçar outros como amigos? Vale realmente a pena desistir sem ao menos tentar?
it's a hard play, but a good one qq
Honestly really touching and beautiful. Very well written. These sound like actual conversations people have with each other. Truly, I don't have the words to speak on it a lot, but it's lovely. I haven't cried but it touched me in ways I didn't think something I played only by randomly sifting through my steam library would.
后续呢?有人说开放式结局有艺术性可供人解读,但我只想看到后续
