    It requires a great deal of patience and perseverance, but those who enjoy exploring and can embrace the nonsensical and peculiar should appreciate the surreal charms of Strange Telephone and its journey into the unknown.

  1. I love the presentation, I love the conceit, but ultimately this is just a cleverly disguised badly designed point-and-click adventure. Hell, this is a game where you get moon rock by looking at the moon through binoculars. Come on.

    A neat take on surreal-exploration/walking simulator games, it is however very short and doesn't feature an enormous variety of areas by anyA neat take on surreal-exploration/walking simulator games, it is however very short and doesn't feature an enormous variety of areas by any means. It fixes many problems to do with getting lost and wandering aimlessly that many of these games have by having the game take place on a 2D plain and also integrating a fast travel system of sorts. The game has more of a focus on actual puzzle and level design too, so if you've ever had a problem with the lack of objectives in walking-sims this might be more for you. Doesn't have a heavy atmosphere like many of its peers, but feels more like a lighthearted, spooky adventure. A very cute pixel-art style can just as easily be made scary, with varying environments and atmospheres present all of which are accompanied by great music. Very small game that is very worth its small asking price. Great if you like point-and-click games and or surreal-exploration games. Expand
