    This is a short, text-heavy, easily-mastered coming-of-age romance from a one-Norwegian studio. As such, the graphics are blockish and the story a bit simple-minded, but you can easily get to a satisfying conclusion. There's no voice-acting and no time-pressure, which makes it relaxing in a way. Sometimes it seems slow-paced, but that fits the setting and story pretty well.

It took me about 6 hours to play through the first time, and I wasn't pushing the pace at all. The English version is easy to understand; several other languages are available. If you like graphic novels, you'll probably enjoy this game. If you're addicted to action-adventure titles, you'll likely find it a snooze. I admire the author's concept and ethical constraints compared to most computer game stories today.… Expand

    Embracelet é um abraço virtual da Machineboy para qualquer um que queira jogá-lo. De alguma forma, ele conta uma história clássica e apaixonante de amadurecimento com uma reviravolta que faz o jogador sentir tudo e mais um pouco, ainda assim sem tropeçar em si mesmo.
