Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

And I don't expect it to be replaced anytime soon. This game made me feel emotions no other game had before, and if you can find a few hours (maybe 4) to play it in one session, then you should, it's worth it. Can be played with a keyboard, but having a controler will be much better.

A great little game with a very engaging story, original gameplay and a unique way of controlling the main protagonists, the two brothers. I played this on my Nvidia SHIELD TV using the SHIELD controller and it played great. The controls are intuitive and feel really responsive. I have read that the game can also be played with mouse and keyboard but a controller is really recommended if you want the best experience. I was surprised at how engaging the story was without any sort of real dialogue or narrative. The journey is quite emotional and the music and especially the sound design add a lot to the overall atmosphere of the game. Though it's only 3 hours long, the length of the game feels about right. It's also a very nice looking game with beautiful rendered backgrounds and fluid animations. The locations you visit are very diverse and the game never feels dull or repetitive because of this. All in all this is a game that everyone should give a try. It's a great testament of what a small group of talented designers can do. Be sure to pick it up, it's well worth it.

I am not sure why... but I genuinly didn't like this game. I am a big fan of narrative game or environmental story driven game. But this one... I found it boring. Interesting gameplay idea... but nothing more than a gimmick (left thumb and right thumb controlling two separate characters)... i found the game to be very easy and not very interesting. IMHO.

I absolutely love the tale told by the Brothers. Even though all of the puzzles are easy and it doesn't take long to complete the game it is worth trying. After the initial stages you can feel the climate of this universum and it drags you in. I'd give 5/5 but I miss the complexity similar to Syberia series. It deserves strong 4 though.

This game is just a waste of money and thankfully I bought it on sales. Forget the mouse and keyboard, because it is not the way you have to play this game: you MUST own a gamepad to play in a decent way. Controls with keyboard and mouse are horrible, you must control the brothers with WASD keys and arrow keys together: it's frustrating in certain moments. I played for less than 10 minutes, then I pressed alt-F4.
