If you're like me, tons of games, looking for something new and have been through so many games you'd swear you know them all, the entire Steam store... you're looking for something different.
This is it - Different!
Look at it as an admission ticket of a movie you want to watch, this is a bit more immersive though. It IS a game, but not as you may know games, more like a flight trough hoops or...at least bits of a story that becomes more and more complete as you fly trough history in time.
In the beginning, the game graphics isn't very complex, but it evolves over time as you progress in the game. And the game can be as long or as short as you like, depends on your exploration (and skills to find the feathers). Took me 93 minutes, and I must admit I BINGED the entire game in one go, I rarely do that, but it IS short, but kinda sweet - like a movie.
So if you're me this day, searching endlessly for entertainment, well - this won't be the next big thing, or something you'll rush to your friends and say - Guess what? I found our next game!
If you did that, chances are you'd be unfriended by a lot of them, because this isn't to everyone's taste, but that taste I described above, the one who has the large game collections, been there, done that - and nothing seems new, just entertain me a little - if only for a few hours.
And that's exactly what this game does!
Pro's
- Relatively easy, anyone can play it.
- Totally safe for any age groups.
- Should literally work on even weak 3D cards, it's not that complex.
- Relatively bug free, there are some boundaries bugs, but nothing game breaking.
- Self explanatory game play. Your 4 year old could pick up on it.
- Interesting story about humanity, where we started, where we are and where we're headed.
- Different from most games out there, very very different.
- Relaxing music.
Con's:
- Short game, 93 minutes is all it took for me, and I played it only once, because...well the story has been told.
- The achievement system is totally broken.
- The graphics isn't mind blowing in any way, gets better towards the end.
- The light system is a bit too bright at times, so much so it will make the entire scenes white.
- Boundary detection is a bit flawed, just resets you, sometimes returns your path, but...more not.
- Sometimes you collide with cables, sometimes you don't.
- Lack of animations in some scenes make them a bit lifeless, some has animations, some has none.
