    Evan’s Remains is a beautiful, cleverly designed experience with themes that stretch far beyond its premise of a girl on a mission in uncharted territory. Spending time with it made me ponder the nature of gameplay and of how storytelling is used in games in a way few others have.

    Evan's Remains is one of the little surprises of the year. A beautiful game in every way, with great puzzle design which, at the end of the day, leaves us with a memorable experience due to the story and its characters. I can only recommend it.

    I can’t over-emphasise how pretty it all is. The backgrounds are wonderful, the meticulously detailed character animations on par with the best I’ve seen. That the vast majority of this game, including not just the art and writing but also its fabulous music, is all by one guy, is astounding.

    Evan's Remains is an example of a very atmospheric story that makes great use of pixel graphics, music, and puzzles for maximum immersion. And although the project is completed in three hours – it is clearly worth it, although the ending may not please everyone because of its final plot twist.

    A beautiful and breathtaking puzzle platformer full of heart, charm and quality level design. A game everyone should have on their radar.

    Is Evan’s Remains the game that is worth investing your money and time in?    My Video Review is available here:

    Is Evan’s Remains the game that is worth investing your money and time in? One can find many positives there - mysterious complex story, relaxing gameplay, puzzle design, gradual learning curve, responsive controls, beautiful graphics and nice music. There are also few negatives that I have found while playing - the puzzles become quite repetitive sooner or later due to simplicity of their design, the adventure lovers might not like frequent puzzle platforming sequences and vice versa, hard to follow for children and absence of dubbing.

    Pros:
    - story
    - relaxing
    - puzzle design
    - gradual learning curve
    - controls
    - graphics
    - music

    Cons:
    - creeping stereotype
    - the mix of genres is not for everyone
    - hard to follow for children
    - no dubbing

    If you are looking for a pure adventure or pure puzzle platformer better look somewhere else. But if you would like to try a puzzle platformer with a strong story you are on the right address here. I personally have enjoyed playing Evan's Remains and I am therefore giving it Thumb Up and VideoGaming Father’s Index 7+ out of 10 - recommended.    … Full Review »
