    Establishes its world and its harsh realities very effectively; Gut-punching, emotionally draining story; Extremely effective storytelling, done completely wordlessly; Exploration can be fun thanks to the way the 2.5D sidescrolling environments are crafted; Gorgeous to look at.

    Bad-
    The price is a bit of an issue, considering the game's length; Can feel a bit repetitive and grindy; Some minor technical issues.

    Thoughts-
    Endling – Extinction is Forever isn’t for everyone. That’s not because it’s a particularly hard game to play or because it’s mechanically complex- no, in terms of gameplay, it’s actually really quite accessible and easy to get into. Its oppressive world and brutal story, however, might not be the sort of escapism that everyone looks for when playing a video game. If, however, you’re on the lookout for a short, well-told, uniquely captivating experience, Endling is well worth checking out. At roughly three or four hours long, its $29.99 price tag might seem a bit steep, but if you’re the sort of player that can forgive a game’s brevity because of its quality, Endling is certainly not lacking in quality.    … Expand

    I was very surprised by Endling – Extinction is Forever. I enjoyed it for the most part, with a lovely visual style and story, although the gameplay felt a bit repetitive at times which held it back slightly.

    Endling conveys a necessary message through a moving story and entertaining and satisfying gameplay. The Herobeat Studios video game is a must play.
