    Anodyne takes a bit to get into, but becomes more interesting once the tone and setting sinks in. It might not be for everyone though and you may find yourself confused for the first few hours, but letting go of typical adventure game logic might be enough to let you dive into the mystery and dreamlike nature of its world.

    Anodyne is a strange sort of game. I like the fact that it is quite easy and forgiving with the focus being more on exploration rather thanAnodyne is a strange sort of game. I like the fact that it is quite easy and forgiving with the focus being more on exploration rather than combat or platforming. The game world is quite simple and the levels all have a distinct feel to them thanks to the very unique and atmospheric music. There are some nice moments in this game, and the conversations you have with other characters are designed to make you think, but when I finally finished the game after almost 10 hours of play, I was a bit underwhelmed by the unclear ending. I still enjoyed my time playing Anodyne. Full Review »
