    When The Unfinished Swan was released back in 2012 on PS3, it was unique. Today, upon its arrival on PC, it’s lost in a sea of much better indie games. [12/2020, p.66]

    Красивое приключение на пару часов геймплея.
    С механиками не перемудрили, отличный звук, визуал и сюжет.
    Полностью стоит своих денег.

So don't buy if you're expecting another game in the style of What Remains of Edith Finch, this isn't that. Quite a weird shift for the studio. There is some story in here but it's not a lot and it comes to slow, it's nothing like the studio's first game or your typical adventure game.

    And the mouse clicks, holy eff the mouse clicks, no one wants to start a game like that. The start of the game felt like I had just fired up a cheap online clicker game. But at least the graphics are done in a stylistically clean way, they had a vision and they stuck to it, so some props for that. But I'm afraid I just don't think it adds up to an especially good game, or an especially intriguing story. At least not for young adults and up.

    It's also pretty short, maybe 1.5h, so I'm not sure it's worth the full asking price of $15. There are other short games in the same price bracket I'd much rather play for the same money. Journey, Inside or Abzu come to mind as a start.

    What Remains of Edith Finch was a masterpiece, but this game is short and nowhere near it's predecessor. Shame.
