    This game is a masterpiece. I could not believe a game with such simple graphics could catch me that strong. Gameplay maybe not the best aswell, but the story covers it all. The story in really stunning - I could feel tears in my eyes at the end which happends with me not very often. It may be a bit confusing at the start, but at the end you will understand everything.

    didnt have any expectations but this game surprised me so much but how good it is, gameplay is rather easy and there just to call itself a game but the story is amazing and has a lot of depth, its about all kinds of topic to discuss and so many things open for interpretation

Для понимания, изначально проект, несколько лет делали 2 человека. По существу, кто играет в графику а так же тупорылые ,сразу мимо. Людям же думающим, любящим подумать над не сложными ну интересными головоломками, которые играют в игры с прекрасным сюжетом и глубоким смыслом, я думаю непростительное расточительство пропустить этот шедевр.

    It starts to charm you with a beautiful mysterious atmosphere and continues with your actions: explore your home step by step, solve a few puzzles, have some doze of action, find our other side of your character, speak to a stranger and of course all the game long you learn the story. The story about beauty and tragedy, story filled with pain and love, deep thoughts and simple joys of everyday life.
    Yes, the game is not too long or hard, but it keeps excited all the time with perfectly balanced always changing gameplay and storytelling. It was a pleasure to play it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Inmost, little scary at some parts, but it have interesting story, fill with many emotions. Like three stories, each have something to do with another one, and collecting secrets what can reveal deep to the story of the whole game. So if you want learn more of the story, then you must find hidden collectibles... It have strange feeling across whole game. Little details giving it higher level of experience . Good sky and very good ground details with grass and all these things.
    And, enemy attack system is just normal, nothing special about that stuff. Interesting black things, half of that can be easily killed, but you must just find out how. But thats different in the knight story, you can just smash them all with your power.
    What to say. Another well managed game nothing bad at it. For me, 9 score    … Expand

    Game is fine (it's closer to an 8 than a 7) so I doubt you'll be easily disappointed but I'd like to point out its major flaw I noticed, the gameplay is not as fluid as it should be because a) it's very frequently abrupted by different types of gameplay b) the characters have to move across modestly long distances for little rewards and c) the movement is frankly too limited.

    The puzzle are straightforward and the platforming light. The gameplay isn't particularly difficult as, if you die often, you have infinite retries and very little to re-do.
    This is a game to play for its atmosphere and exploring its marvelous world.

    I'm loving it.    … Expand

    An interesting strong story about pain and love between children and parents. I can’t say that I cried, as some write in their reviews, but for a simple indie game, this is a very good job. Especially the visual. I really love high-quality pixel art, and it is here, in stock. In its gray and gloomy tones, but nevertheless, the game has a very pleasant visual style.

    Until the very end, you can almost understand nothing in the story, what exactly the story is about, but after the plot is revealed, there are no unpleasant "story holes", everything is in front of you.
    The only two things that were unpleasant: (1) a bit of an uncomfortable fights when playing as a knight (2) a short story... no, I understand that this is not a full-fledged adventure, but a simple dark fairy tale... but I unexpectedly found the end credits. I wanted more of that dark pixel art World.    … Expand

    Inmost es un juegazo. No puedo decir nada más. Un juego que casi me hace llorar en algunas de sus partes, con un apartado audiovisual de 10 y un gameplay no tan bueno, Inmost me ha llegado al corazón y de que manera. Vamos a profundizar en esta obra.

    El gameplay es lo que más rápido me puedo quitar. Es una especie de metroidvania con un mundo que está bien diseñado y unos controles mejorables. En medio del mundo, hay varios enemigos (u obstáculos) además de puzzles que tendremos que ir resolviendo para avanzar. No me ha parecido lo mejor del juego, pero está bien. Quiero aclarar que el juego es MUY corto y no exagero. Me ha durado 3 horas y 20 minutos y me ha durado bastante más que a la mayoría de gente.

    Audiovisualmente, es increíble. Un estilo artístico como pocos usando una técnica tan común como el pìxel art, una paleta de colores muy reducida y de tonos muy oscuros pero que le siente de perlas al juego, unos diseños increíbles, tanto de entornos como de personajes y una música que hacen que considere su OST como una de las mejores que he escuchado en un videojuego.

    La historia... es perfecta. Nunca había visto un juego tratar tan bien temas como el dolor humano, la tristeza que sentimos... Pero este juego lo hace y de que manera. La historia (sin entrar en terreno de spoilers) nos cuenta una trama que al principio, no tiene nada que ver, pero que en los últimos 10 minutos sabe unir todo a la perfección, sin sentirse raro ni forzado. Tiene momentos de llorar, momentos que dan miedo por lo desconocido de su mundo y una variedad de sentimientos que ningún juego ha tratado antes. Sin duda, lo mejor del juego.

    Inmost me ha demostrado que un videojuego es más que su gameplay y que la historia puede ser mucho más importante de lo que pensaba. Recomendadísimo menos si estáis por un mal momento de la vida    … Expand

    Brevity (just 4 hours to credits roll!), serious subject matter, good sound design, easy platforming and accessible puzzles almost balance out the many shortcomings of Inmost, like its non-interactive climax, weird controls and empty talk in lengthy dialogues. But not the mind-numbingly dull knight episodes — those are beyond redemption.

    Each of Inmost’s three playable characters has been given not only their own narrative, but also distinctly different gameplay mechanics. The bearded man’s segment is a full-blooded platformer that reminded me of Hollow Knight (and that’s a huge compliment). The little girl’s gripping story took the form of a simple yet suspenseful adventure game. And then there’s the knight whose action-oriented section is dull and feels like it was grafted from a different title. Despite that disappointment, I’m not surprised by the awards this beautiful, memorable game won when it was initially released on mobile devices. [11/2020, p.70]

    What initially sold me on INMOST was the notion that it was inspired by the considerably more light-hearted To The Moon; while I wasn’t expecting such a tragic tale about pain and suffering, the developers definitively recaptured what made their muse great. Realistic depth of characters, discussion of topics oft overlooked yet extremely relatable, and a compelling narrative made for a captivating journey that will stick with me for a long time. INMOST will likely fall on my top 10 list of games released in 2020, and, as long as you have a controller and don’t mind the pricetag for a five hour experience, I’m confident you’ll feel similarly.
