    Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture transports the player back to the brief moments leading up to the apocalypse to explore the choices people make when they’re faced with world-shattering events beyond their control.

    I found this game very intriguing. I particularly like the fact that the developers have tried something new and different. I find myself continually thinking about it and pondering its meaning.

I can see that it will not suit everyone, especially people who want clear cut and unambiguous answers. However, I believe that ambiguity is sort of the point of the game. I also believe that the players only limited interactivity in the world is also part of the message.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sometimes you need to take a step out of your comfort zone when gaming, and experience new things, im very reluctant to do that, and if im honest I look down on Indie games as somehow not worth the money.

    I took a chance on Every one’s gone to the Rapture, and actually I wasn’t disappointed entirely.

    The first thing to make clear is, this isn’t a game per se; it’s a narrative, a collection of spoken accounts that make up the overall story. The basic premise is, ultimately, everyone is dead, right from the off, there is no one, you are tasked with piecing together what happened and making sense of it.

    As you enter the small village of Yaughton in Shropshire you notice a glowing ball of light, and this will be ultimately your guide throughout the journey you embark upon, this spirit if you watch it carefully will show you where the major points of interest are, but it’s important to stress that it doesn’t go everywhere and you will need to be nosey to learn all the information, for instance taking a woodland footpath will often lead to hushed conversations and side lines in the major plot, and its actually critical sometimes that you hear these in order to make sense of everything.

    As you wind around the village and its surrounding area you learn that something catastrophic happened here, some celestial event has wiped out Yaughton and ultimately the world.

    What starts as an isolated village soon becomes apparent to be something bigger than they anticipated and it’s too late to stop it.

    The main characters Stephen and Kate are scientists, and for most of the story argue a lot about what to do about the being that is killing everyone, the real gem here is that the stories are so personal you can’t help but get involved, I don’t want to spoil too much, but you gain the most from this adventure by taking your time and exploring and listening, and more importantly understanding what is going on, it took me 30 mins to realise who I was and why I was seeing the things I was, but the ending made little sense and didn’t really explain everything, I still have unanswered questions and that is one of my gripes.

    What you do learn is that everyone gets infected and eventually dies, after nose bleeds, headaches and other symptoms, it doesn’t explain why some people turn into ash or just disappear, my gut feeling was it was a radiation type of thing inside some alien being that came to earth via the black hole event that took place, but that’s my theory, it’s a frustrating story as well as a rewarding one, you also garner that the event has already happened and you are witnessing something else, some sort of echoes stuck in time.

    Lots of questions are generated by story and ending…

    For example, what exactly happened, I get that an “event” happened, but what exactly…? Why do I see spirit echos from the past? Why me? why at the end do I see myself disappearing? These questions are never answered, or if they were, not clear enough that I grasped it first time through, and the explanation that is read out at the end gives some wishy washy sentimental reason how were all dead now, but were together, and that life will go on after were gone (humankind)…. Sigh.

    The graphics are truly beautiful as you can see from the screenshots I’ve added to this blog piece, but what really sets this apart from anything else is the music score, it’s one of the best I’ve heard in a long long time, the timing of the music with the events that unfold is truly an emotional thing and it’s hard to describe, I caught my breath a few times when the sunlight hit the trees and the music kicked in with its haunting, lilting meoldies and voices, truly inspiring at times.

    My biggest gripe with this title, is the time it takes to play through, even with the imposed cripple speed walking, the story can be told in 4 hours of play, for £12.99 that’s pretty poor, there was a massive amount of un explained stories and theories that could have been put in to fill out the story, but weren’t.

    Having said that, I would recommend Every one’s Gone to The Rapture, it’s an emotional journey that all PS4 players should undertake, and ultimately form your own theories about what is going on and why.

    I rated 8 because its short, something are unexplained even at the end and its a bit slow moving about.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Its apparent that a lot of the other user reviews are completely unaware of the r2 button on their controller. It makes you go faster. Its written in the user manual. That being said, the point of the game is not to speed through it. Its to listen carefully and see the state of the world. You SHOULD be looking at all the details. Those posters that say the goings on of the town are important to the story. The variety of tiny details gives the environments their own stories. The musical cues and various sound effects draw you to investigate certain places and help with pacing. The few emergency vehicles present are few in number for a reason. The intimate look into the lives of the other townsfolk give context to the rest of the story. There is narrative depth here, just dont expect to be beat over the head with it like most stories in games.… Expand

    The game to end all games. Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is a first-person non-linear interactive story. There are no puzzles to be solved. You look around for clues while walking through an astonishing environment and listening to a wonderful soundtrack.

    An enjoyable game in the vein of Gone Home. I am definitely in the mood for a game like this every month. I appreciate the diversity in gaming. This game lets you meander around and tells a story in whatever order you discover it. It was a solid game but not for everyone.

    Story

    The story in Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is an intriguing journey that doesn't hold your hand throughout but instead gives you pieces of story in the form of light "scenes" that play out across the environment, and as you progress you piece together what exactly happened in this town, and I found myself constantly shifting my theories as I discovered more information.

    Graphics/Performance

    This is one of PS4's most gorgeous looking games, with great lighting effects, the only thing that i did notice was there was some slow down during some parts of the game.

    Gameplay

    The gameplay is as you would expect from a first person exploration game, the only gripe i have is that the speed at which you traverse is a bit too slow and can sometimes be a drag.

    Overall EGTTR is a great FPX with an intriguing story and a gorgeous world that is strung together nicely with the narrative. My only problem is that the ending didn't quite make sense to me and the traversal could have been sped up a bit.    … Expand

If that's not for you, then it's worth watching a Let's Play instead. The story is easily the richest, most emotional, and most beautiful I have ever encountered in a video game. Jessica Curry's soundtrack alone is enough to bring tears to your eyes; the stunning graphics and unique concept bring you deep into the dying world of Yaughton, Shropshire, England, where a pattern of light is infecting people and somehow making them vanish. Utterly absorbing, this isn't the longest game but well worth the price as it will stay with you for years to come.

    My only complaints are that there is no zoom, crouch, or examine function-- I'd hoped for something to look closer at the immaculate detail that The Chinese Room added to their game-- and there is no sprint, which would be helpful to keep up with the sometimes speedy glowing orb that guides you through the game. Other than those technical details, this game is, in my mind, flawless.    … Expand

    The view in this game is absolutely fantastic. Peace and quiet. But when you go deeper in the lore, you'll find touchy moments of townspeople's life.

If you want to judge the game based on how much you can do...well, you can turn a radio on or pick up a telephone to listen to a conversation play out that may help in discovering what exactly happened to the town. You can follow a yellowish orb around to see and hear events that had transpired beforehand. That's it. If that level of simplicity turns you away, stop reading this. There's nothing wrong with wanting more to do in a video game. Now if you're still with me, let me say that within the first few minutes, I went from memorized to frightened to deeply distraught and back again. The atmosphere is simply above and beyond anything I have experienced in a game before. And the storytelling made me feel like I had stepped right into a Stephen King novel. Remember in English class hearing the phrase "show, don't tell"? Well, this game gets that. The player is told nothing directly and has to try and piece together the story bit by bit overhearing the characters conversations with each other and themselves. The voice acting needs to be superb in this case and thankfully it is. Along with the score that only plays when appropriate and does not intrude over the story. It's all pieced together immaculately and is really a testament to how much care was taken in development. Now, some complaints have been made about the walking pace. I found it similar to the walking pace in Fallout 3 or New Vegas and had no problem with it. I certainly wouldn't be against an update that could give a jog option though.
    In conclusion, If you've had the patience to read all of my jabber today and are interested in the game, then dive right in because you'll find a story that is told in a way you'll most likely fall in love with. But if you're still iffy and not convinced you'll enjoy the game mechanics or lack thereof. it's probably better to put that money toward something else.    … Expand

    I was unsure about this game but the more I played the better it got. It's a beautiful game and a solid 9 and a must play at the $15 price. Another great new IP for the Sony PS4.

    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]
