    Relatively short but still good. It would get a higher score (at least a 9) if it was more complex in a sense of not only more levels but also more complex mechanics (exploration didn't feel that rewarding because of that lack of complexity but it was still great).

    GRIS is a beautiful game with relaxing soundtrack and visuals and a deep story and some creative and fresh puzzle designs. The game might not be for everyone, and it can get stalled at times but overall, it's a beautiful 2d platformer worth the try.

    jogo incrível!

    lembro que quando abri o jogo, como com a maioria do entretenimento hoje em dia, que se consome fazendo varias outras coisas, tentei usar meu celular, seja para fazer um tuíte, ver um vídeo engraçado ou ouvir um podcast enquanto jogo. mas ai... ai veio aquela cena inicial, a arte, a musica... aquilo me prendeu, tentei continuar mexendo no celular mas... parecia errado. o    jogo incrível!

    mas ai... ai veio aquela cena inicial, a arte, a musica... aquilo me prendeu, tentei continuar mexendo no celular mas... parecia errado. o jogo pedia pela minha atenção.
    larguei o celular e fui jogar meu joguinho de andar e desbloquear cores por 2 horas.

    sei que pode parecer bobo para quem estiver lendo, mas pessoalmente, hoje em dia, valorizo muito uma obra de entretenimento que tem a capacidade de em meio a tanta informação, produtos e coisas para se fazer, conseguem prender sua atenção e te absorver pro mundo dela durante algumas horas, e GRIS fez isso comigo, me puxando para um mundo artístico, melancólico e lindo...

    obrigado.    … Expand

El estilo artístico es apasionantemente bello y perfecto, logrando transmitirte sensaciones únicamente con su apartado visual. La historia que se intenta contar es simple y no emplea ningún diálogo, pero igualmente consigue ser muy emocional. En cuanto a la jugabilidad, basada en puzles y plataformas, se emplean varias mecánicas típicas de juego de plataformas pero se exploran bastante bien. El juego se puede pasar en unas 3 horas. Aunque GRIS sea un juego sencillo y sin grandes pretensiones, esta experiencia jugable logra transmitirte algo que muy pocos juegos logran, algo muy difícil de expresar con palabras y que tú mismo debes sentir. 9/10

    EYE WATERING EXPERIENCE! Gris tells us a story without even saying a word game is about grim topic of grief. There are not much other games that touch on this subject and ones that do touch this subject are also ''eye watering'' such as The Last Of Us or God Of War.

Gris tells us a story without even saying a word game is about grim topic of grief. There are not much other games that touch on this subject and ones that do touch this subject are also ''eye watering'' such as The Last Of Us or God Of War. In order for player to understand story you must focus on the background the things that happen how the world changes because this is what grief does it puts you into a whole another world you live walk talk among us but in a different plain of reality. When you are grieving you are not in the world of the living the person who died took your hand and pulled you into the land of the dead and now you are in limbo. So the main character of GRIS, you walk through the stages of grief and see how the world around you changes for example on the second stage of grief the world around you is desert and it feels that way when someone dear to you dies the world looks empty looks like has nothing to offer other than some ruins. You know what this game deserves a complete review here you go : THERE ARE 5 STAGES OF GRIEF and our character goes through all of them one by one ''Denial'' is a colourless world obviously a fake one ''Anger'' is red that causes you to see nothing but lack in the world such as the desert i talked about, ''Bargaining'' is when things start to change you start to acknowledge death and talk with it, in my experience this is the hardest one that hits its portraid as green just like a blooming plant in order for things grow this step is a nessesity, ''Depression'' is nothing like what teenagers thing it is depression is hopelessness beyond any not just crying because your family didn't buy the new ps5 or Jordan or something idc, depression is sufficating and you are underwater in this chapter of the game the colour blue in artistic pieces is representetive of the sorrow not differant on this one. And the last one ''Acceptance'' is the colour yellow just like a guiding star, warm and accepting embrace of the colour yellow was our destination all along the person you loved is dead but the memories are immortal. 10/10 At some point in our lives we will all go through this game.… Expand

Well, it is definitely not a game for a casual gamer who seeks for immersive gameplay and such, but nonetheless it is a top-notch artistic experience with extremely moving story, outstanding soundtrack and broad symbolism. Its way of depicting the process of overcoming grief after loss of a loved one is definitely moving and can cause the tears to well up in one's eyes.… Expand

This game is no an exception: Incredibly stylish and beautiful picture with a verified style. It would seem that there are only continuous lines, circles and extremely simple silhouettes... but how pleasant it is to be in the World of this filigree minimalistic adventure... Normal sounding of the environment, and VERY pleasant music... The first half of the game is extremely simple and straightforward. But from the second half, more interesting moments and riddles begin. But due to the fact that the whole game is like an interactive picture, the first half is not boring. It is pleasant and interesting to just look at, and listen to it.
    The plot of the game tells about the psychological problems of the main character, in a
    philosophically drawn World. Something like that... and throughout the game we help her overcome this, learning some skills, exploring this "inner World" of her. You could say, as some wrote, that this is a "Girly Game", well... if you are a man-lumberjack-with-a-beard, or you only like action, shooters, epic and etc. - yes, this is a "Girly game" ...For those who are open to emotions, who like something unusual - this is a small and very beautiful game-play art, which I strongly advise to acquire and play.
    P.S.: I guess the game was inspired by the old "Journey", so it managed to motivate me to check it out as well.    … Expand

    Эта игра произвела на меня такое сокрушительное впечатление, что я два дня ходил с чувством пережитого откровения, которое было выше слов, выше анализа... Я даже не ожидал такого, я не был к этому готов, а ведь я взрослый человек, который повидал многое. Вообще в начале показалось: "ну да, красиво, но это же симулятор ходьбы"...

Я даже не ожидал такого, я не был к этому готов, а ведь я взрослый человек, который повидал многое. Вообще в начале показалось: "ну да, красиво, но это же симулятор ходьбы"... Как же я был неправ, какое это было примитивное мнение, основанное на неуместных сравнениях. Минут через 20 от него не осталось и следа. Кто переживает за геймплей - не беспокойтесь, по мере прохождения появляется кое-какая сложность. Но вообще эта игра не про набивание комбо на клавишах. Поймите, это искусство. Это высокая поэзия, исполненная в виде игры. Вы встречаете в ней такие образы и эмоции, что вам потом будет несколько дней стыдно и кисло от других игр. Кому кажется, что тут мало активностей - а что, надо было дать героине в руки плазмоган? Да прекратите, подобное звучит в данном контексте просто пошло. Эта игра - совершенно потрясающий опыт, который надо пережить. Отказаться от него - это обокрасть себя. Это шедевр. Он повлиял на меня. Мои сны захватил на несколько дней. Со мной такое было всего несколько раз в жизни.
    Не представляю, кому эта игра может не понравиться. Только если людям без сердца.

    Некоторые пишут с язвительностью, что вот мол игра является клоном "Journey" и "Ori". Господа хорошие, автор сам ни разу этого не скрывал и честно говорил об этом. Но есть определенная грань, отделяющая плагиат от развития идей. Если кто-то придумал рисовать красками, значит ли это, что никто больше не должен этого делать? Если кто-то написал сонет о любви или о смерти - только за ним осталось это право? Продать под своим именем чужую историю - величайшая подлость творца, но развивать чьи-то идеи, использовать изобретенные ранее приемы - это и есть природа искусства. Здесь автор запретную черту ни разу не пересекал, не юродствуйте. Эта история и эти образы уникальны.

    И еще. Этой игре никогда не нужен будет ремастер. Даже если ее запустят через тысячу лет, через десять тысяч – она будет такой же прекрасной и ее будут так же проходить с блестящими глазами, вы только вдумайтесь в это.    … Expand

    Tek bir yayında biten, ortalama 3.30 saatlik oynama süresine sahip güzel bir oyun. Hikaye anlatımı, görseller ve müzikler muhteşem. Fakat hikaye anlatımının güzel olmasının yanında, hikayenin kendisi biraz eksik kalıyor. Fakat bu eksiği hikaye anlatımı, ses ve görüntüleri ile kapatmayı başarıyor.
