Apr 9, 2017A perfect narrative, this game will touch your heart. PREPARE TO CRY. Maybe the gameplay could be a little better though, but I understand it´s a narrative game and it doesn´t has to have a perfect mechanics.

Official Xbox Magazine UKMay 29, 2017The puzzles may be easy, but this is a beautiful and genuinely moving ode to childhood. [June 2017, p.84]

Apr 20, 2017Blackwood Crossing offers a touching glimpse into the inner workings of a family from the perspective of a young teenage girl. Loss is at the core of the story and watching Scarlett and Finn internalize loss is a heartbreaking look at childhood. Revealing too much of the story takes away from the magic of Blackwood Crossing, but it is a gripping tale that everyone can connect to. Some of the puzzles boil down to disappointing distractions, but other are always engaging which makes the beautiful story the most important aspect of the game. Anyone looking for next tremendous story in gaming should look no further than Blackwood Crossing.

Apr 13, 2017[Blackwood Crossing is] not perfect, but the amount of love that pours out of the game – both in terms of the visual and technical quality from the team of developers and in the palpable relationship between the characters – far outweighs any minor nitpicks you could have.
