Dec 27, 2015Even though im not a fan of puzzle-quests i found this story pretty intriguing. Much because of the lovingly told story which reminded me of the feeling you got as a child when absorbed by a good story. If this team made a sequel i would totally buy it in an hunt of getting that nice fuzzy feeling again.

Nov 3, 2015A great little game with a touching story. To me it seems like a perfect candidate for a Game With Gold/ Ps Plus game. It is also quite easy to get all the achievements which is always a bonus. The controls are the worst part of the game, all over the place at times.

Jan 11, 2017Great story, however hated the controls. The game is really short, and should be considered on a sale. The story is engaging, but the controls are just horrendous.

Oct 27, 2022Honestly one of the best games I've ever played.
Very short, but longer would be pointless and would weaken the connection you build with the characters, which is absolutely central to the experience. -
Jun 19, 2017Interesting idea and concept. Even though there is no words in the game you can still get attached to these characters. And what a unique way to play the game with both joysticks. Also the length was great and it didn't overstay its welcome.
-
Sep 29, 2019A fun and emotionally intense game. The controls can be a bit messy at times, but for the most part, it's a great experience.

Aug 3, 2019+ gute Geschichte, die man obwohl man kein Wort von den Charakteren versteht gut nachvollziehen kann
+ die Steuerung ist etwas "Neues"
+ die Musik ist wirklich atmosphärisch
+ trotz der nicht aktuellen Grafik werden fantastische Bilder gezaubert
+ viel Abwechslung dank nach und nach neuer Gameplay-Mechaniken
- etwas kurz
- die Steuerung hat schon manchmal ihre Macken -
Apr 12, 2017Decent effort. Interesting unique take on controlling two characters at once. The story is good but the game-play, once the newness wears off is a bit too much going through the motions. It is also a relatively short game.

Aug 29, 2017Puzzle game with no dialog, and yet, it got very emotional. It's probably my favorite game of all time. It's only 3 hours long, and is on sale all the time. Totally worth it.
-
Dec 21, 2017A touching narrative that will melt your heart. While textures vary in quality to the point where they were distracting and confusing controls that I got the hang of right when the game ended, this tale of two brothers makes these issues forgivable. Some small puzzles do get repetitive, but nonetheless a great game.

Oct 19, 2018that best I have played in an indie game. I had no idea when I bought it what it is and by whom the scenario is basically written. now I know everything. I liked the music the picture the gameplay the puzzles the plot and generally the original way you handle the 2 characters. game that any lover of the genre must have played.

Jul 26, 2021A beautiful story of a journey into a fairy land with lots of fun. Played in 2021 and enjoyed a lot. Lots of hidden details telling side stories and missed most of them in the first run...
-
Nov 15, 2018A Masterpiece, loved everything about this game, it is definitely a must play!
-
Mar 21, 2023Very beautiful little game that you can finish in like 2-3 hours. Unique and charming.

May 15, 2020Solid 8 but will never be a 9. Still very fun story and gameplay. Too short. Must play for the diferent experience.

Jun 27, 2020One one the best Indi games but not the best one
This journey was hell of a ride for me -
May 25, 2020Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is such a beautiful and magical tapestry of story weaving. The minimalistic design told through imagery, ambiance and music come together to create a gem of an experience. Simply a masterpiece.

Jan 15, 2020Very predictable story and not a lot of game play. I was quite disappointed with this one.
-
Jul 16, 2022A great game with a touching story.
The controls could get a bit uncomfortable to use. -
Sep 8, 2020Brothers is a decent puzzle platformer with the unique aspect of controlling the titular boys via gameplay. The level design superficially seems rich but doesn't live up to the promise. The entire game could have used more meet on the bones. Still a worthy effort by a small team.
-
Apr 3, 2021Emotional story, very nice visuals, and fun gameplay though it can be a little confusing.
-
Mar 20, 2022Decent story, short game (3h), good music. Much overrated though. I preferred Silence (ps4 game 2016) by a large margin.

Jul 9, 2020Игра в которой все понятно без слов. Одна из самых трогательных игр. Это явно игра ТОП - 10. И 2 место в моем личном ТОПе. Играть всем обязательно.

Jun 25, 2020This game was such a pleasant surprise! The story is so simple, so beautiful and sad. Gameplay is really interesting. You control two brothers at the same time on their quest to find a cure for their ill father. If you like games like "Journey" and short adventures and you don't need brutal animation and graphics, this is indeed a little gem of a game you should try.

Oct 11, 2020Excellente expérience.
Fait sur PS4 pro, vraiment classe.
Le maniabilité est unique. -
Jul 22, 2021A surprisingly fun game that has a lot of heart and is very underrated. Control scheme is very simple (in a similar vain to Overcooked). Level design is gorgeous and beautiful. Although this game is set in a mythical place, the story is very real and grounded. You can really feel the brotherly bond that the two main characters share despite there is no legible dialogue. An absolute gem of a game.
-
Dec 16, 2021Unique in it's controls and fun to play! I would recommend to play this game :)

Jan 18, 2021Brothers - a Tale of Two Sons, PS4 version è una bella storia triste di legami e perdite. L' amore fraterno nel dolore e nella speranza. Balla la grafica e il design dei Troll, cascate, montagne, foreste, cimiteri e fuochi accesi. C'è tutto ed è molto godibile e semplice come leggere una Fiaba. Consigliato a chi ama la natura e le storie in stile fiabesco.

Jul 26, 2021يوسف أنت رائع رائع .. القصة ياخي جدًا مؤثرة والجيمبلاي والفكرة وكل شي .. شكرًا على هذه التحفة
-
Feb 26, 2023Puzzle game particolare, in cui si controllano contemporaneamente due personaggi.
Lo stile artistico dovrebbe essere "poetico", ma francamente non mi ha ispirato molto.
La trama vorrebbe essere toccante, ma non mi ha lasciato molto.
Puzzle sufficienti, un po' troppo facili. -
Jul 9, 2023*7.5*
Short game with a nice story, although gameplay is somewhat clunky. You play with two brothers on one joystick, but can do a co-op using one controller.
While it may seem as a cheery game at first, it soon becomes darker. -

Oct 1, 2015This is a fairy tale of "hope" and two brothers will bring the weight to the end.
-
Sep 8, 2015Style and emotions remain deliciously unchanged, yet this re-release on current generation consoles isn't exactly a luxurious one (and it's even pricier than before...).
-
Sep 4, 2015It's still and enjoyable and original game, although this remake should be considered only by those who haven't already played the original, as the extra content is really thin.
