Firewatch

Hm...Firts of all, the start was really good, i though i am gonna lose in time while i am playing it, but i needed only 5 hours for it, unfortunatelly...i hoped Firewathch will be a good thiller game and it's worked, but not for long. Wait till it's on sale.

A really great game. I liked it a lot, even though it was a bit short. The story sometimes feels a bit forced but in the grand scheme it seems acceptable. I can only recommend this game to people who love to play games that are not that fast-paced. If you can get this game during a sale and can spare 10 bucks to get yourself entertained for a few hours DO IT!

You walk around, you interact, you listen to banter and see views, and - no matter how you play - there is no real choice and the ending (always same no matter what) is questionable. While I enjoyed Firewatch myself, I know many won't. Thus, I must give it a fair 1/5.

I heard this game was good beforehand, and it's also a type of game I knew I would like, and I sure as hell wasn't let down. Walking around the beautiful environments, getting to know the area, experiencing this amazing story, it was all fantastic. As soon as I started playing I could barely stop until I reached the end (which I know has been critiqued but which I liked). A definite recommended game if you like nice game places and stories

First, let me say I generally do not like so-called "visual novels" or games which are barely interactive. Firewatch is interactive, but there's actually little to actually choose to do, and barely any puzzles to solve. That said, "Firewatch" is top-notch. Visually, it amazed me: looking at the sky in a starry night was breath-taking, and I really felt I was hiking in a national forest. It also has a very moving story, and it's also an adult game -- the good kind of adult. There is some suspense and tension, but this is essentially a story about loneliness and running away from your problems, and also about friendship. This could easily work as a short story or even a short film. I like what the developers were trying to do with this game, even if it has some flaws, and would definitely buy more games from them.
