    When in the right mood for such a game - it is an easy 8/10 ... when not in a kind of melancholy mood - it may be a 2/10 for being quite boring.

    Impressive atmosphere, good puzzles and an absorbing storyline, in this slow but inspiring adventure. It's no masterpiece, but you'll want to discover more and more as you play.

    Beautiful environments, a deliberate slow pace, and an intriguing story to unravel for completionists make this Homesick game a moody journey.
