Haven

It's not a game, but a experience based on a historyteling, where you will find out yourself living with a couple during a running away and handling the problems that bring whit it. For most people, that like AAA graphics and don't care with empty head histories and lot of action, just go away, because the game have none of it. The history telling It's similiar a 3D graphical novel with plataform gameplay and some combats and LOT OF TALKING, A LOT, literally. If you love great histories, and enjoy indie games because they might be fun, have a nice rich history or ofer a experience that it's not seeing too much (never seen this before), it's for you. Enjoy a couple history of love and perseverance with ocasional fights and problems. 10/10 for me ( 4 of this points just for the good ending T.T

The game overall is good. It has a nice sound, the scenario is nice to navigate and give the sensation of free will. The characters are fun, so are the dialogue choises you make. What I complain more about this game is, above everything, the lack of depth in the combat system and on the storyline. It feels a bit shallow, as everything you do becomes repetitive, and the enemies are very easy to get around, giving no challenge at all.

Not the sort of game I normally play, but it was hard to fault this in the way that it did exactly what it wanted to and didn't try to be something else. It was fun, a distraction, and a good piece about two characters. Gameplay was interesting, the music is great and the two mains had fantastic interactions. A change of pace.

(haven't found anything against sharing this in the guidlines so I'll just go ahead:) I've played this game on stream after I've been following its development for a long time & had also streamed the demo in March. So if you want to hear a more detailled review & witness more of how I've made up my opinion about it, just search for "Kanashi Atisuto Haven" 🌀 I finished playing the game on 09/12/20 but still want to play the second ending for 100% achievememts & out of curiosity, of course. On to the (kind of) TL;DR version: •atmosphere The demo gave a great feeling for what you'd be in for but the full game delivered so much more than I expected & it stays true to everything that's been promoted. You get greeted by beautiful colours & incredible music (I knew Danger before & fell even more in love wih their work through this)- I literally get goosebumps & want to cry every time I hear the intro, it's so beautiful 💙 The visuals represent the characters, dynamic & feel perfectly. One of the main elements is gliding & it's so relaxing. Some challenges await you as well making for fun variety. Oh & there's one special event + some parts in the story that give off a creepy vibe. I was not prepared & the contrast to the main mood of the game made me remeber a bit how I felt when I played that basement part in TLOU- made me shiver 😳 So: chill, sometimes challenging, fun & beautiful 🙌🏻 •gameplay I played with an xbox 360 controller. Gliding became a bit tricky sometimes mostly due to the u turn getting triggered too easily or the character sometimes not reacting quick enough but overall I wasn't bothered too much by that. The fighting isn't really turn-based (not my thing normally), I liked the challenge & wanted to do everything as well as possible. •story/characters Awesome, mature, different, "brave" writing & acting 😍 •more Vegan friendly 💚 (one exception which the devs kindly aknowledged) Incredible designs Legendary credits

The two central characters are, well, central to the game, and they really are the highlight of the overall great experience of the game. Seeing the relationship between the two, and how it grows, develops, and is strengthened, is something I haven't seen other games do quite like it. The exploration and combat aspects of the game take a different bend from most RPGs, having to sync between the two characters to be the most effective. Other aspects such as cooking keep it all from becoming too tedious. The story is decent enough if lacking in some areas and overall underwhelming and following the beaten path. The other aspects of the game make up for it though.
