    Journey’s journey to the PC is a successful one, barring some minor technical issues. Between its incredible atmosphere and unique mechanics, this is one title worth exploring.

Essentially - this is Limbo without unease and outright horror. To remain objective - you do get several beautiful locales to look at, as well as certain change of scenery (desert - dark desert - spoiler - spoiler). Plust there are three - I repeat, three - moments in the game, about a minute long each, which did indeed made my heart go faster.

    Overall the game is aesthetically pleasing. But in essence it's the case of style over substance. The main issue here is the story though - it's just another case of an ancient civilization f-ing up with you left to witness their former glory.

    To add insult to injury PC release is in poor state - constant framerate dips make it unenjoyable. They become far less frequent at later segments of the game though - yet still I experienced drops even near the ending, despite my PC allowing me to get 60 fps when fps manages to hold itself at bay. This brings what I'd mark as a 7/10 game to 5/10. Shame.

    Also, I wonder how many dislikes this review will get - I really must know how much of deep art I did not understand.

    The story is told without words, and that is what makes it unique and incredible. One word is worth playing, it's a masterpiece.

    A good relaxing game with the spectacular locations, but with the boring gameplay and a short length.
