    Wayward Strand took me by surprise with its depth. The writing is funny and very well done. The characters are all strong and well-balanced.
    There were some little visual bugs but I was so ‘immersed’ that they didn’t break it. I think this is quite an exciting game which is bringing something new, something positive. There are really no other games which have made me feel introspection    Wayward Strand took me by surprise with its depth. The writing is funny and very well done.

    Despite a few shortcomings, this game is fantastic. With several mysteries to uncover, it lends itself to multiple playthroughs. The artwork is beautiful, the characters are engaging, and the drip-feed of lore about this familiar, yet distinctly different world keeps my wanting to try another playthrough.

    Accept those technical shortcomings and it's hard not to marvel at the way this feels like a complete, self-contained world. [Issue#377, p.122]
