Unique, captivating and the best thing I've experienced in quite a while. The story is so relatable, so heartwrenching and heartwarming at the same time, and so human... The way it is told, the collage and mixed media, kept blowing my mind. Simply incredible. Do yourself a favour and play this. It's free and it will take, at most, two hours of your time, while changing your life in the process.
A story that will change your life, is completely free. Play this game, I promise, with all my heart and soul You won't regret it. There's only so many ways to describe a tree, but to see it with your own eyes, to experience it with your own mind, see it through your own lense... that is something truly special.

Yeah I'm bawling my eyes out. This hit me spiritually and felt so real and connected to me and my experience with reality and having consciousness, alongside the love story being beautiful and heartbreaking. I love this work of art.
Everything, everyone, has a purpose in life. Whether immediately clear or not, there is always a method to the madness. Set Yourself on Fire is a beautiful, stomach twistingly honest depiction of young love through the traumatized lives of Michelle and Alex, in a grounded and viscerally real world not more than ten steps away from our own. Unlike most of my reviews regarding games that have personally touched me and my being, I cannot say much more than that. Please, please give this short (~3 hours) visual novel a read, I truly believe that there is something in this experience that can resonate with just about anyone from any and every walk of life. Love yourself and one another, be kind. And whatever you do, do not douse that fire within you.
我好像被什么东西碰了一下,但我说不清是什么。
Beautiful art and writing!
Trees are pretty.
这两年一直都在焦虑和浮躁,看不进去任何书籍和电影,很感谢这个游戏让我短暂地静下心来,玩了了六个小时,最后还好两个人都活着而且幸福的活着,感谢这个作品,她们二人之对世界的看法让我有很深的共鸣。结局是好的,让人觉得未来的生活还是有希望的。两个人的情感给我带来的感觉就是美好,安静,平等,温暖,悠缓,两个人都很幸运可以遇见彼此。
Indescribably beautiful. It felt like someone reached into my ribcage and squeezed my heart until it popped.
i love everything about this game
