    This isn't a game. I'm kind of furious that all the good reviews for this software tricked me into paying $20 for it. There is nothing to do but walk around and follow a ball of light, which occasionally talks in the voices of dead people.

I'm kind of furious that all the good reviews for this software tricked me into paying $20 for it. There is nothing to do but walk around and follow a ball of light, which occasionally talks in the voices of dead people. But since you can't actually see the dead people (just the ball of light), they mean nothing to me and I can't even remember who they are from one "scene" to the next. Besides walking around and watching light balls talk, the only thing you can do is open doors or turn on radios. The radios are basically the same as the light balls, just play the voice of some dead person. Just in case you were wondering, the story is not interesting or intriguing at all. It's a very generic "end of the world" scenario which is further damaged by the inability to care about any of the characters/light balls. This is one of the worst non-interactive non-games I've ever had the misfortune of spending money on.… Expand

I went into the game expecting to be solving mysteries and discovering items, possibly find a single weapon with 3 bullets and 4 evil scientists or something crazy like that. But nope, you can only press x and get halted by bushes and 2 foot fences. The abundance of this game is to walk around and listen to audio tracks or watch light figures of dead people talking. There are only 3 things to really do, walk, open doors, and press x. You don't do anything really substantial, heck, you can't even jump/crouch/ or interact with barely anything. 8/10 for it's open world visuals and story, 3/10 for game play.… Expand

    Imaginative Sedation. Interactive Anaesthesia. IGN gave this game 8.0 out of 10 even though the development team admits “the only fail state in the game is if the player doesn’t care.” Well, I'm here to say caring will only get you so far in completing the EVERYONE GONE TO THE RAPTURE experience.

You will also need stimulants.

    In order to get this title to the point where I would feel comfortable actually calling it a game, the developers would've been wise to offer some concrete objectives and other conventional gaming aspects. By design, EGTTR is more like a "walking sim" with an abundance of emotional baggage. It plays out more like a very, very slow paced e-novel with only minor differences in play through depending on the order that you choose to progress across the town and countryside.

    In DEAR ESTHER, the Chinese Room's glitchy previous title, they offered flag collection tasks as well as other standard game play conventions like object manipulation and problem solving. Some structures like this to assist in solving the mystery of RAPTURE or a real presence of danger to the player would have added greatly.

    That said, I've given 4 out of 10 stars because the environments are beautifully constructed and the story is enhanced by a haunting soundtrack.

    I sincerely hope this studio is able to continue together. I feel, in spite of the troubled titles so far, it's clear to see the potential for this small crew. With a solid game idea built around their obvious skills, they could be the independent crew that gives us the next DISHONOURED or PORTAL    … Expand

    In this glorified Walking Simulator, you just mill around aimlessly with nothing to do. Occasionally you stumble upon some little narrative and that's about it. There are no puzzles, enemies, power ups, objectives or literally anything else that make a game a game. I'm guessing the same people that enjoy this as a game are the same types that see a complete random splash of paint on a canvas and start talking about how emotionally stimulating it is.

    Now if you have been desperately looking for a game that you can play in front of your Grandma without stimulating her in any way because she has a heart condition, then this is your game. Otherwise save your money and PS4 memory.    … Expand

    This game is a pretentious walking simulator. It hides behind atmosphere and gorgeous graphics, but, ultimately the experience boils down to a glorified platinum trophy hunt. Slow walking speed is infuriating and the story is, well, predictable from the title. It's not good.

    1980's England, only had 1 type of railway carriage.

    In Everybody's Gone To Rapture, you are cast as a cripple and tasked with walking about 3 miles. This includes having to use stairs, which you do so with great bravery but at a snails pace.

    To save on resources, (development effort) the characters in this little drama are ethereal - they are also thoroughly humdrum and unremarkable save for the fact that they are no longer living people. To save on resources, there are false walls everywhere. You want to open that door? Nope, you can't. Oh, but you can open 'this' door - next to it.

    Utter, utter fresh cat faeces. Laid bare in a litter tray, with a knife and fork next to them, sold on the PlayStation Store, made by The Chinese Room.

    I have never felt more ripped off. I really want my £12 refunding.

When a game's only selling feature is its environment and story, when one of those doesn't pan out, it really tarnishes the entire thing.

That's not so much the issue as the fact I think The Chinese Room doesn't even understand the game. The game leaves nothing but more questions. That makes it a complete waste of the time.

    The story is also not really worth the time it takes to crawl everywhere. It's mostly watching scenes from a small English town involving gossiping. Every once and a while, you get a bit of mysterious info about why everyone is missing, but even by the end it's not that clear. Also, since your main guide through the places you need to go is a floating light ball, sometimes you'll completely miss some scenes because the light ball has gotten stuck or vanished completely. There is probably some sort of system to it, but this is one of those irritating games that tries to be artsy by not explaining anything that you are supposed to be doing.

    Basically a walking simulator.......it's clear you should not listen to metacritic what games are, I got it for free on ps4 plus membership and I'm happy I didn't paid for it.

    There really isn't much to do in this game. I was very disappointed in the lack of interaction you can do with items around the map. The game really is just walking around and listening to other people talking..... that's it. The visuals are beautiful and the story is meh.... I only write "meh" because its cliche and predictable. Plus the story isn't very well told, you can completeThere really isn't much to do in this game. I was very disappointed in the lack of interaction you can do with items around the map.

Plus the story isn't very well told, you can complete the game and miss A LOT of the story by not discovering certain sections of the game very easily. The game is way too slow paced. The music and lights in the game are the only good parts :(… Expand

    The things I like about Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture are many: the self-paced discovery and chronological asymmetry, the significance of entangling yourself in a visually “complete” environment, the poignance of a well-crafted, well-delivered character exchange. I’m just not sure how often I’d want to repeat the experience.

    The slow, idyllic exploration, paired by some good narrative make Everybody's gone to the Rapture something that should be played, but only by those with patience. It's a sluggish walk to the end, that pays off, but probably not enough for many players.

    Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture claims to be something more than a game, but that claim is completely groundless. [10/2015, p.50]
