    This is one of the worst games I've ever player.
    Bad story: I've read some people saying the story is touching? So a story about an egoist person that abandon the wife with a little kid is now touching. I wanted the old man to suffer. The message of this game is SO WRONG.
    Gameplay: Inconsistent mechanic. It is easy in a bad way. It is easy because it is not well designed. Sound: A four

    Sound: A four time short melody that repeats again, again, again, again, again. It is not even well composed.
    I thought the videogame industry was more mature than this. An eye candy videogame that is really bad.

    Old Man's Journey is such a gorgeous looking title, complete with a beautiful soundtrack. Those aspects are then draped over a moderately engaging puzzle idea, and comes with a story that aims to be touching, but will leave many feeling either apathetic to the theme, or actually frustrated by the progression of the old man's life and foolish choices.

    Touching and atmospherically dense story that impresses with simple innovative puzzle mechanics and great picture-book-like presentation.

    A brief, gentle puzzle adventure tinged with melancholy. [Issue#264, p.71]
