    Gravity Ghost is a nice surprise. It isn't violent, has a good story and is original, something you rarely find these days.

    It's an interesting experiment, and has its own way of connecting with the player, and creating emotions.

    Expressed as a product, Gravity Ghost is an inventive platformer with a precarious and affecting narrative.

    While it’s still relatively short — experienced gamers could likely speed through in one or two hours — there’s still enough to recommend.

    It's hard to convey the toughest moments, those moments that we compartmentalize and repress beyond recognition as adults. And it's especially hard to convey such moments in language and images that both children and adults can appreciate and understand. That Gravity Ghost accomplishes this feat with such seeming ease is a testament to its imagination and its power.

    Gravity Ghost is pretty great. The gameplay exists in an odd space where it would require appreciable skill in order to play it well, but does not feature any sort of punishment for playing poorly. Though it only rarely can be described as difficult, it can still be satisfying.

    Play Gravity Ghost if you’re looking for a weird, endearing experience that you can lose yourself in for a few hours. Pass on it if you’re looking for something more.

    Gravity Ghost hits the notes of big-budget platformers on a smaller scale; its story fumbles along the way, but it's short and sweet.

    Interesting ideas which were individually executed well, though it felt like the pace was a little slow, too few ideas over too many levels.Interesting ideas which were individually executed well, though it felt like the pace was a little slow, too few ideas over too many levels. The length of her hair being a resource gauge for terraforming was cool and the Guardians were entertaining but there just isn't enough challenge, content or promise of content to bring me back. The experience as a whole fails to capitlise on it's unique mechanics.… Full Review »

    Pros:

    Excellent: music, story, storytelling, game mechanics, game play, voice acting, visuals (subjective but I enjoyed the style) Tiny    Pros:

    Excellent: music, story, storytelling, game mechanics, game play, voice acting, visuals (subjective but I enjoyed the style)
    Tiny Tina from BL2 (Ash Burch) and Narrator from Bastion (Logan Cunningham) are among the cast.

    Cons:

    The last few mazes are made more difficult to solve with limited screen view area.
    The final puzzle with Fox Guardian is ridiculously difficult if you are color blind (I had to bring in help.)

    10/10 Wondrous achievement.    … Full Review »
