    The Missing is not the most perfect game we have seen this autumn, but it does have its heart in the right place. The bizarre platformaction has fun puzzles and a lovely story to really pull you in.

    The Missing is a Limbo-like game where you have to die to resolve the puzzles. Even if it's too easy to finish and not very convincing technically speaking, this game has a lot to offer in terms of story and atmosphere, brilliant.

    SWERY’s latest work seems unusually derivative at times but the mix of disturbing atmosphere, surreal situations, and serious subject matter is still hugely engaging.

    Its platforming is clunky, its animations stiff, and you eventually tire of its repeating puzzles—but I’ll remember J.J.’s story, and her inner struggles, for a very long time.

    A puzzle game about self-mutilation. This game will give you the feels, unless you have no heart.

    This game is genuinely amazing from start to finish. Near perfection in every area. Except voice acting. But the voice acting isn't bad enoughThis game is genuinely amazing from start to finish. Near perfection in every area. Except voice acting. But the voice acting isn't bad enough to lose a point. Full Review »

    It is a really good game. But it is not for everybody.
    The story and the atmosphere are awesome but the controls can feel clunky.
