    A Rose In The Twilight is a wonderful dark fairy-tale of a game, with a bleak atmosphere, a beautiful ethereal soundtrack, and a very charming, if grim and at points, gruesome story (our silent protagonist Rose...goes through quite a bit trying to find out why she and her Stone Golem companion are in this situation, i'll just say that). It's game-play is solid, and its puzzles inventiveA Rose In The Twilight is a wonderful dark fairy-tale of a game, with a bleak atmosphere, a beautiful ethereal soundtrack, and a very charming, if grim and at points, gruesome story (our silent protagonist Rose...goes through quite a bit trying to find out why she and her Stone Golem companion are in this situation, i'll just say that). It's game-play is solid, and its puzzles inventive and satisfying without needing to utilise a lot of mechanics, even if the solutions can be vague, obtuse and/or requiring precision timing, which can lead to frustration and even overthinking much simpler puzzles down the way. Never the less I would highly recommend this game if you like your creative and atmospheric story based puzzlers, and even more so if you like them with a gothic edge.… Expand

    This is the sort of game that needs to be experienced, rather than played — and if you’re looking for the perfect time of year to do that, it’s right now, so you’d better hurry up and get on it.

    A Rose in the Twilight is a title with a dreadfully oppressive atmosphere that stars a tragic heroine whose trials and tribulations are heartbreaking to experience. It features solid, albeit sometimes frustrating puzzles and an abundance of backtracking. It’s a title with a niche appeal, but to those that can appreciate a dark fairy tale and have the stomach to suffer through some disturbing imagery as well as some obtuse puzzle designs, this might be a flower worth cultivating.
