    Despite being based on an important scientific figure, any weight behind The Forest Cathedral’s story is lost in its gimmicky presentation. It has some good ideas, sure, but what should be a powerful gut-punch of a narrative is instead diluted down to nonsensical dialogue and a hodge-podge of visual ideas that don’t really go together as well as they should. Am I glad I played it, though? Absolutely, even if it has still left me scratching my head.
