    The gameplay and puzzle design act as something of a distraction, but not a frustration, while the game’s painted vistas and ambient music lull you to be almost meditative. The nature of the game invites you to be introspective, much like the old man you’re controlling.

    First of all, this is a mobile/ IPad port, that is not necessarily something bad, but in this case, it is the laziest port ever. They haveFirst of all, this is a mobile/ IPad port, that is not necessarily something bad, but in this case, it is the laziest port ever. They have not even changed the mobile icons, they have changed nothing, therefore you can see the mechanics suffer in console. The game looked gorgeous, specially the artwork, and the story, I was expecting something touching and beautiful. The truth is the art is nice, but the story is bland, predictable and cliché. The game is about two hours and manages to be boring, which is a great achievement.

    As I said, the gameplay has been ported from mobile and does not work very well in PS4, there is a cursor in the screen all the time for you to interact with the small number of things you can actually interact with and it is uncomfortable to say the least.

    Unfortunately, not all games that look good, are actually good. This one is bland and boring.
    Get if for tablet or phone (is way cheaper) if you really want to check it out, but it is not worth the price on the PS4 Store.    … Full Review »

    A heart wrenching tale
    Old Mans Journey is an about hr and a half long puzzle game where you play as a man who gets a letter.. you don’t know what this letter says but as the game continues and the story goes on you begin to understand..
    you see where its going and you just never want it to get there..
    but to get there as the name suggests you have to go on a bit of a journey.. this is where the puzzle comes into place..
    its all about pulling different land masts to different heights so oyu can hop from one place to another and proceed to the next area or chapter…
    every chapter rewarding you with a still of this mans past..
    I didn’t quite find anything to be done interesting here with the game mechanics.. but I definitely enjoyed my experience with this game.. the art is beautiful, the story made me cry…
    there were moments of fun.. but most of it was mild irritation of trying to figure out the a puzzle..
    the game and the old man is not consistently responsive either… I would click to a spot on the screen and he would start walking in a different direction to a different point..
    there was also a moment or two where I broke the game..
    id click to a spot and the old man walked off screen to the past area and wouldn’t go back to the area I was supposed to be in, resulting in me having to back out and come back in..
    frustrations aside though, this is an overall beautiful game that’s worth picking up for the heartstring pulling alone.
    I give Old Mans Journey

    Прошёл второй раз Old Man’s Journey на PS4, так как вспомнил, что скидывал рублей 100 на покупку аккаунта для проката.
    Ну что сказать, играется как на ящике, но немного хуже - в месте с поездом играм как бы фризила периодически, как будто автосейв срабатывал, но не фоном, а прямо останавливая игру менее, чем на секунду каждые секунд 15, что напрягло, но не критично.
    Моё мнение о игре осталось неизменным - та же бессмысленная красота на час без раскрытия персонажей… те же 3 из 10, сойдёт за соточку или в составе Game Pass, за 500-600 брать не советую дабы не разочароваться… лучше на ютубе «пройдите», ничего не потеряете :)    … Full Review »
