    Stone is a Noir Satire Walking Storybook. You are Stone, a Lonley Koala PI, and you're looking for your mate Alex. The game is all about atmosphere, with quirky humor, and stoner rock infused in it's every moment. The game is surprisingly short, as I beat it in less than two hours. The characters are well written, and each dialogue brings a bit to the scene. There is nearly noStone is a Noir Satire Walking Storybook.

The game is surprisingly short, as I beat it in less than two hours. The characters are well written, and each dialogue brings a bit to the scene. There is nearly no interactivity in the game aside from walking around and talking to the various characters that inhabit this world. The story is gripping and impressively emotional in a way I didn't expect. I feel more could have been done here, a lot more. Even with that said what is presented, is presented well. The price on Xbox is a bit steep I feel for what the game is. I Loved the art style and animation, tho out of sync at times, it added to the overall feel of the game. Without spoiling anything there isn't much more to say about this title. I enjoyed my time as the lonely Koala, if enjoyed is an applicable term, as he was depressed for 99% of the time. Stone is a great story with a fun presentation, but I'd wait for a sale to grab this Short, yet entertaining game.… Expand

    STONE arrives at an uncomfortable middle more akin to a pile-up than a tightrope balancing act. The anthropomorphized backdrop feigns a more peculiar and memorable adventure, but the story is mostly lifeless and forgetful. It’s another third-person walking sim that’s not bothered to utilize our protagonist’s skills in any interesting or tangible way. Add on a fifteen-dollar retail price and you’re left considering a few rounds at the pub has more value, and I doubt our marsupial lead would protest to that.

    Stone is a game that looks interesting on the surface. Sadly it falls short on delivering just about every step of the way. Achievement hunters should note that you can grab the full 1000 points in less than two hours and it is pretty effortless. I wanted to like Stone way more than I did. It just feels like it puts little effort into telling the story as interestingly as it is written.

    Stone fails to hold up against the trendy descriptions and catchy phrases. Having a linear, short, and boring story, matched with a lack of polish and zero gameplay creates a package that is hard to suggest to anyone. If you’re looking for some recommendations for talented indie musicians, Stone has your back, but otherwise it was a disappointment.
