Description


Evan's Remains is a mystery-thriller puzzle adventure about finding a missing boy: Evan. The game combines logic-based platform puzzles with narrative inspired by Japanese graphic adventure games.

Gameplay:

Every time the player solves from two to three puzzles, the story goes forward and new mechanics are introduced. The challenge of the puzzles lies in the player’s ability to figure out what do rather than solve challenges based on skill. As the difficulty curve increases, the puzzles become more complex by combining two or more previously introduced mechanics.

Story:

Evan, the genius boy, has been missing for years. One day, a letter signed by him is received, claiming he’s on an uninhabited island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. Nobody knows why, but he asked specifically for a girl named “Dysis” to go and look for him. The player will take control of this girl, who we don’t know much about. As we follow Dysis’s adventure, questions will start to be answered little by little. All of the little puzzle pieces which seemed unrelated in the beginning will now begin to slowly fit together as the truth is slowly revealed.

An easy going puzzle platformer, with a dramatic and emotional story. Evan's Remains is enjoyable from start to finish, with plenty of options to skip content you're struggling with.

While it's over a bit too soon, Evan's Remains is a delightful little puzzle game. Its story builds up to some great lengths, and the puzzles are innovative and fun to solve.

Good puzzles and story, but short

It has good puzzles, not too difficult but challenging. The story is really good, with some twists and turns, and it's complemented by a good soundtrack. The art was what got my attention at first and it didn't disappoint me. The controls were basic but responsive enough to not get in the way. When I missed a jump, it was on me. It's rather short but I think it did everything it was proposed to do and didn't overstay its welcome. It took me about 4h to finish it in a very relaxed pace, reading all the dialogs with care to take in the story. Recommended for story-oriented people who likes puzzles.

it's ok for a game to be minimalistic

i didn't mind the game just being puzzles and story bits and i wouldn't say the story is that bad, but it feels drawn out and doesn't seem to come to a proper conclusion. the end of the story makes it feel, like the game was just a prelude to a sequel, like its purpose was to introduce you to the world, but that doesn't seem to fit with the gameplay. it didn't feel, like a sequel was planned, just like it's an open and unsatisfying ending. the game is nice to look at and it's an ok pasttime for an evening. i wouldn't expect too much from the puzzles, i enjoyed them, but just guessing is enough to solve a lot of them without needing a second try.

It's worth giving a chance

The game is excellent in some aspects such as graphics and soundtrack, which are excellent. The puzzles are cool, even quite easy (it took me an average of 1 to 2 minutes on each puzzle), but I believe they're on point, the puzzle mechanics are interesting too, I've never seen anything like it. I find the plot very complex and somewhat confusing, but in the end, just pay a little attention and most people can understand it. Conclusion: it's worth giving it a chance, mainly because it's cheap and short.
