    The subject matter is deep, almost invasive. It might be something that actually helps you consider your own destiny. However, the actual gameplay is bad. There are easy puzzles then there are ones that slow down your progress, making you wonder if it’s worth continuing because the experience hasn’t been that great to begin with. It’s kind of bland and sometimes boring. Some may like the personalized questions that allow them to have a bit of self-discovery but usually games are an escape from reality. Instead, Solo: Islands of the Heart can actually bring back those memories. It really depends on your own life and experiences. If you’re happy and together with someone, the game will feel pretty pointless. If you’ve had your heartbroken or are alone, it may just highlight your failures instead.

Adventure the relaxing Archipelagos, and delve into Love, and your own perspective on it. The Music and environment are relaxing, in fact if you want to just chill and enjoy the view take a seat on a bench and reminisce. The art style is cute, and almost chibi in design. The story is deep, and involved, taking your own perspective into the narrative. The challenge of the game is the Puzzle like platforming, where you move boxes around, each with their own physics and function, to navigate the Islands of the archipelagos. The various creatures you meet might need help too, like the Puchuchus on each stage that need you to help them home to their own love. Just like love there is no Unique, right way, to solve the navigation problems, as I learned myself when an unfortunate situation made me have to replay a stage, and I found a far simpler way to pass an area that had before given me a problem. This story was designed to make you look into your psyche for answers, it's deep and does just that. Solo: Islands of the Heart is exactly what I was designed to be, and does a good job of it. If you need some introspect into love, this game is a good place to look. Full Review »
