A great short story

Ignore any "horror" descriptors. There are a few scary moments, but for the most part, this game is about two characters you can love, and their journey through an important moment of growth and change in their lives. The "twist" really does become obvious long before it is revealed, but...that's not the important part. And perhaps isn't really the surprise at all. Very much worth the price, and I hope the sequel comes out soon.

Starkes Spiel :)

Hab jetzt schon eine Weile gespielt und bin begeistert. Wunderbare Grafik und Atmosphäre, die natürlich auch durch den starken Soundtrack unterstützt wird. Wer "The Vanishing of Ethan Carter" mochte, wird mit diesem Spiel glücklich. Ein bisschen Grusel war bis jetzt auch dabei :) also, traut Euch an die Fjorde Norwegens, in ein verlassenes Dorf mit einer dunklen Vergangenheit. 5 Sterne, top!

Another good story by Ragnar Tørnquist

The Great - Story. Like all Ragnar Tørnquist games, the overwhelming thing you remember about this game is the characters and their story. - Voice acting. The actors sound like they're "living" the game, not just "reading" it from a script - Interaction between Alice and Edward is the lion's share of the gameplay, and it's all excellent - Alice. Usually sidekicks in a game are totally annoying, but the full experience of this game would not be possible without Alice. Thank heavens she's likeable and her voice acting is exceptionally good. - Sound, ambience & atmosphere are AAA+ - Graphics & visuals are also AAA+ - Modest hardware requirements. Played on Windows 10, 8GB RAM, Intel i5-8400, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB. The Good - Mystery of what happened at Graavik - Hints of Edward's underlying mental health issues (I assume these will be developed in future games) - Hints of Edward's troubled childhood (apparently the root cause of his mental health issues) - Simple, straightforward controls. Keyboard/mouse and controller both supported equally well. - Plenty of options to tweak graphics settings The Bad - Price. This game is way too short to justify a price tag of $19.99. It took me under 5 hours to finish, and I tried to explore every nook and cranny of every building and location. This game is worth $14.99 max. - Edward is not a sympathetic character. He came across as selfish, self-absorbed and generally rude and ill-mannered. Perhaps that was the intent of Mr. Tørnquist. - Too many invisible walls or barriers in the environments. Much of the charm of this game is the fact it makes you "feel" like you're in a beautiful, deserted fjord, which is not an insignificant achievement. And I wanted to more freely explore to fjord and it surroundings than this game allowed. - Vague ending. No real clarity at all given on what really happened at Graavik. Some people seem to like this ambiguity. Personally I didn't. But it's still a game worth playing.

Stimmige Atmosphäre und Story

Ich hatte keine wirkliche Ahnung auf was ich mich bei dem Spiel einlassen werde - die Atmosphäre war aber von Beginn an so passend, dass ich das nahezu in einem Rutsch durchspielen musste. Man muss erwähnen - das Spiel ist in maximal 5 Stunden durch. Was es aber in der Zeit an Farb-, Ton- und Erzählstimmung bietet, macht die kurze Spielzeit wirklich wett. Wenn man Spiele wie "What Remains of Edith Finch" oder "The Vanishing of Ethan Carter" mag, dann sollte man sich das hier auf jeden Fall anschauen.

2 stars for premise and attempt.

Decent walking simulator. Story is on hardcoded rails with no real choices. 90% of dialogue can not be skipped (I am a subtitle reader, not a listener, drove me nuts). While I enjoyed the premise of the story, the writing of Alice was over the top annoying at times. Between the spineless main character you are forced to play and the demanding child that bosses the character around, I just couldn't get into the story as much as I could. Seeing as there are zero dialogue choices theres no way to change the conversation. The atmosphere in the first 10 minutes starts out great, but starts to fray fast. Odd graphics choice in some places. 3d models with 2d imaging pasted infill (the box in the childs room is brutal example). Combine that with the poor lighting (entire last 1/3 of game has ridiculous lighting) and the atmosphere was too fragmented to enjoy. The 'draw' mechanic seems very poorly implemented. Half finished and abandoned? If you want a short story walking simulator with no choices and loose ends, then pick up the game. I recommend not full price. Its not long enough to warrant even that.
