    This "game" has interesting mechanics, but it missing following parts:

I don't know why it is popular nowadays to release any incomplete product and call it a game. But when I pay money for a game, I would like to see at least some plot, especially if one was

    It is a walking simulator.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ghetto. just ghetto. i played for roughly 6 hours when it was supposed to take 2-3. I uninstalled the game because it wouldnt let me put a CRATE OVER SOME WEIRD WATER stuff. I will never understand, nor see the ending because of this. This game has given be false hope that I would get some happy ending. instead there was just some weird mass body formation type mosh pit that rolled and destroyed stuff. no. i dont like it. i didnt like this. i hated this game. i still dont know the plot and i was playing it for 6 hours. my favourite little boy got abducted by some weird walking mosh pit. i hate this. no.

    If you're fast enough, you could beat this under 2 hours and get a refund for it on Steam. It would then be worth it for $0. For $20 it's a scam. The game is way too short.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Disappointed. I heard so many good reviews for this game, so I purchased. The game seems straightforward, but never clearly explains what you are doing and why. Then there is a big twist in the middle of the game, but that twist is not explained either. The ending is confusing and exciting, but again, the lack of explanation hampered the emotional payoff. Played once. Then returned. Expand

    If we had the technology, we’d force all of you to lurch up out of your chairs and go buy this. [November 2016, p64]

    Certain standout moments play unlike any other game. Your first play-through may frustrate but the emotional aftermath hammers home the depth of the achievement. It's the nightmare cousin of Journey. [Oct 2016, p.78]

    An awesome puzzle game with a fascinating style and a dark, but intriguing storyline. Fans of Limbo shouldn't hesitate.
