Excellent design, flawed gameplay
I think few people can argue against the fact that this game has an absolutely gorgeous design. The story is equally great in its own turn: no text involved as far as I played, but the sheer experience of being put in the shoes of a kid faced with his worst nightmares (very recognizable monsters from children's stories) makes for a fresh and interesting narrative. Sadly, the gameplay is extremely problematic. First of all, the checkpoints are annoying af (I was pushed back 3 rooms at a certain point), as they are quite rare, forcing you to redo whole segments of the game because of a single mistake. Moreover, the controls are extremely annoying as well. Very often, though I knew what to do, I would fail because of pressing a key too much to the left or to the right (forcing me to restart the whole sequence, ofc). Not to mention that many puzzles are not that intuitive, which forced me to check online walkthroughs to progress. However, I do recommend it for its imaginative concept and design. But, be advised: you must be ready to get very annoyed if you want to get anywhere near finishing it (and no, I spent way more than 3 hours struggling with the clunky controls and messy checkpoints). P. S. If you can, play it with a controller. It seems to have been designed with this in mind, as they keyboard+mouse controls are even worse.
