    Station to Station is often hilarious, often mortifying, and perpetually honest. As Perfect Tides so wonderfully depicted incredible specifics of adolescence, this sequel speaks as truthfully and intricately about the emerging of adulthood. It captures those moments of profound bliss and shattering devastation, alongside the beauty in the mundanity between. And it makes me miss those times with that magical girl from university, and so unbelievable grateful it’s so long in the past and never to be repeated.

    Station to Station is as worthy a follow-up to the brilliant original Perfect Tides as anyone could have hoped, continuing Mara’s story with the same insight, compassion and immersive writing while deepening and expanding its narrative through interesting new mechanics.

    A wonderfully written examination of what on earth it means to be an adult. Gameplay and art both feed back into the central themes, creating a heartfelt story, with a dash of pretentiousness.

    An indie gem where every pixel breathes love for its characters. An old-school point-and-click adventure whose story starts slowly but then develops an irresistible pull. Perfect Tides: Station to Station is great storytelling on a small screen.

    This is a story about finding your voice, but it also grapples with an uncertain time, when some outcomes are beyond our control or experience. [Issue#420, p.104]

    Mara Whitefish's new adventure is sometimes irreverent, at other times sentimental, but it's always genuinely true. So much so that you find yourself getting angry at one character or another, only to realize that, as teenagers, we probably behaved the same way.

    Station to Station is full of catnip for aging hipsters, loaded with winking references to the indie culture of the time. It’s a proud ode to millennial cringe in all its saccharine sincerity.
