    After Us is a wonderful, dream-like journey through the evils of the world, an epic with a profound storyline and setting that makes us reflect on the path of humanity and everything around it. An excellent platformer, with a respectable duration and plenty of collectables to gather. A must-buy for fans of the genre.

    After Us is a grim yet hopeful tale of what the future of humanity and our planet looks like, given our current actions. Within its dark moments shine a fantastic platformer that shouldn’t be missed. It not only carries a strong message, but it also shows what is possible for the platformer genre on modern consoles.

    There’s a chance that you may find After Us a bit too depressing, and it has to be said that the combat is highly repetitive. But the scale of the level design, visuals, and soundscore found here are outstanding.

    After Us is a 3D game that offers us a different and hard story. Feelings will be on the surface and reaching the end will be difficult due to the great level design.

    With After Us, the Piccolo studio once again flexes its ability to make video games go beyond mere entertainment. Despite a simple gameplay, the title manages to surprise the player with each new environment. Its clever level design manages to break the corridor effect inherent to the genre. Even if the camera system could be improved, nothing hinders the player's progressive awareness. After the ten hours or so spent with the controller in hand, we came back to reality with a different perspective. This title undoubtedly deserves its place among the nominees at the next Game Awards.
