    Anamorphine’s emotional energy arises from the movement through its environments, seeing how they connect and comment on one another. The characters in the game are unemotive but its spatial dynamics are anything but.

    Beautiful and sad
    Anamorphine is a 2 hour long first person exploration game, aka a walking simulator with a main focus of depression.
    The game starts with you, Tyler... at rock bottom in an apartment with scattered pieces of a chello, you find these pieces and youre off on a journey to discover the cause of his depression...
    The game starts out at a near masterpiece level of amazing...
    the sights, the sound, the experience... its so beautiful…
    you live your life with your wife Elena, and youre going through your memories with her, and everything that lead to the next thing, exploring tylers subconscious mind, constant shaping and changing of rooms its so magical..
    But as the game goes on it goes from amazing, to great... to good.
    This is a solid good game and experience, but it struggles to live up to its beginning moments…
    And I feel this mostly has to do with the game revisiting areas instead of coming up with fresh metaphors or similes as the story progresses to keep the delivery of the point intriguing,…
    to keep the world feeling mysterious like it does so wonderfully in its beginning moments
    being suddenly placed into colorful world of flowers or riding on a bike through a desert is so impactful the first time, but the multiple times after the excitement and wonder no longer exists.. you’re just going through the motions at that point
    its still enjoyable to get through, but the impact is just gone
    That not to say there aren’t moments during the second half of the game that will punch you in the gut, because they exist..
    Experiencing this world and its story is so worth it...
    There are some performance issues though, load times between chapters are painfully long and there is constant freezing between sections of a level, transitions could definitely be more smooth...
    I ultimately loved anamorphin though...
    The world is beautiful, the story telling is great.
    You get hit in the moments you’re supposed to.
    Despite its issues, this is a magical game worth experiencing
    I give anamorphine a 7/10    … Full Review »
