    Gibbon: Beyond the Trees is a beautiful, touching, and harrowing side-scrolling adventure title. Swing through the trees, protect your family, and avoid the hunters. The movement is fluid, the environments beautiful, and the story is poignant.

    While It is refreshing to implement the movement of gibbons with simple controls, the game's short playtime and repetitive gameplay remains regrettable. Wouldn't it have been more efficient if the message was implemented as an animation using their fairy tale-like visuals?

    Gibbon: Beyond the Trees has a noble cause, to bring attention to the issue of animal conservation and human impact on the planet. And while it looks fairly good in doing so, the repetitive gameplay and sluggish pacing prevents this adventure from making any big leaps.

    While its tone may be a little uneven, its heart is definitely in the right place. Gibbon: Beyond The Trees deals with a lot of hefty topics in 60 minutes, but it also knows when to let its hair down, too, giving you everything you need to enjoy and celebrate these creatures while they're still with us.

    Yes, this is a game of one mechanic, just hold and release the button at the right timings for boost. There is nothing original in    7,2/10
    Yes, this is a game of one mechanic, just hold and release the button at the right timings for boost. There is nothing original in this, but no one has done this about Gibbons yet)
    There is an average, but pleasant, visual and soundtrack. The plot here is purely formal, for a change of scenery.
    The game takes about 100 minutes, nothing really irritates, only repeating the tutorial 10 times at the beginning).
    +The game was created in part to attract attention to the extinction of the species of these incredible creatures.
    Devs could do something philosophical.. about the "transience" of life, like.. that our life cannot be stopped or paused, like us in the game, and we are forced to fly further and further, well, nevermind)
    Generally, it`s just a normal game, not a masterpiece, but worthy of your attention if you like the concept.

    Да, это игра одной механики, просто удерживаешь и отпускаешь кнопку в нужные тайминги для разгона. В этом нет ничего оригинального, но про Гиббонов такого ещё никто не делал)
    Тут средний, но приятный, визуал и сонудтрек. Сюжет тут чисто формальный, для смены декораций.
    Проходится игра минут за 100, особо ничего не раздражает, только 10 раз повторяющий туториал в начале).
    +Игра создана отчасти чтобы привлечь внимание к вымиранию вида этих невероятных существ.
    Можно было бы вообще сделать что-то философское про "скоротечность" жизни, типо что нашу жизнь невозможно остановить или поставить на паузу, прямо как нас в игре, и, мы вынуждены лететь дальше и дальше, ну это ладно, я так)
    В общем, просто нормальная игра, не шедевр, но достойна вашего внимания, если вам нравится концепция.    … Expand
