    Great surreal and fever dreamish atmosphere and great sound design, like all Cosmo D games

    The Norwood Suite is one of the most different PC games I've played. The music is brilliantly done and I love how the music is incorporated into the dialogue. When I play it, it gives me an unsettling feeling so I have to put it down after playing it for a little. But I love the dialogue and find it well written. I also love all the different plot points and themes. The ending is aThe Norwood Suite is one of the most different PC games I've played.

My one complaint is that the game was a little confusing at times in terms of what I had to do next. Overall, I would give it a 9.2.… Expand

    Forsaking both challenging gameplay and a traditional narrative structure, The Norwood Suite is a welcome odyssey into oddity that will more than satisfy those craving strangeness or just another piece of the delightful Off-Peak universe.

    The Norwood Suite shames all other walking simulators with the quality of its storytelling and the way it uses player interactions in the narrative. It’s a unique, intelligent and ambitious game that eludes simple interpretation. [13/2017, p.37]

    The game doesn’t ultimately suffer from its technical issues. Instead I felt more like it was muddled by lack of creative cohesion or foresight. The game’s story was intriguing, but doesn’t really resolve in a manner which is coherent. The level of visual fidelity works, but doesn’t entirely seem premeditated. Yet it’s over very quickly, and in its broad strokes paints a captivating picture. Had it required me to spend more time to reach its pay off, I might have been bothered by this. To compare it to music, this works well as a free mix-tape, but I wouldn’t tolerate it as a full album. That said, I’m interested in what the artist’s point of view is. If they were to be signed, I’d likely want to check out what they could put out with the support of a record label.
