    I generally enjoy story games, and this (as you know) has a touching story. I like the notion of the intertwined stories; I like the mashup of Groundhog Day / DK64-we-each-have-different-skills / try-to-get-this-Rube-Goldberg-machine-working ideas; and of course, it's all visually beautiful. It's fairly tedious to play, though, and just generally not terribly well crafted as a game. SomeI generally enjoy story games, and this (as you know) has a touching story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wish I had liked the ending as many people do, but I just hated it. I mean, you spend the whole game struggling to save your beloved one and be together again, just to find out that this is impossible. I give it a 6 because it's a beautiful game, but I think the ending is totally anti-climax.… Expand

    Last Day Of June is a short but satisfying tale that uses the Groundhog Day formula to immerse you in a touching and thoughtful way. While it doesn’t shy away from very serious real-world situations, it also doesn’t tastelessly sink you too deep into its dark depressive undertones either. It has a clever approach, especially considering the choice of medium that it uses, which is all so beautifully and carefully constructed to tell you its story.

    Heart-breaking, devastating and sometimes adorable. Last Day of June is a simple but well-written story about love, death, loss and the cruel company of loneliness. A piercing and deeply emotional adventure, partially ruined only by regular backtracking sequences.

    Last Day of June is mostly quite good. It’s a story-driven game with one of the best-told stories I’ve seen in some time, and it offers an emotional edge that’s likely going to leave you with a lot of feelings by the time you reach the credits. The gameplay, however, is passable at best and annoyingly repetitive at worst, and while it didn’t fully keep me from wanting to reach the end, it added a somewhat frustrating slog to get there.
