GRIS

GRIS is a game somewhere hidden in the library of GOG and other such providers. Hadn't really heard from it, until I started searching for a platformer. And I'm so happy I did! This adventure is nothing short of breath taking. GRIS is gorgeous. The game play is good, but sometimes and especially when I stopped playing the game for a day or two, I had to really get back into the game and find out what I was doing again. I think this is partially because the levels look somewhat similar in all their amazing mathematical perfection. I love the colour aspect of this game and that the more you play it, the more colourful the game becomes. All in all, here's my rating: Story: Not much of a story, it's more atmospheric in my opinion Graphics: 9.5/10 Music: 10/10 Atmosphere: 10/10 Game play: 7.8/10 Overall: great game. Would recommend if you like atmospheric platformers with a touch of magic. Bit lower on the Game play score as I sometimes just got heavily lost and had to resort to a walkthrough to find my bearings again. This happened more when the game got to its end - but this could also be my severe lack of concentration playing parts and I won't deduct stars for that.

Beautiful game, excellent soundtrack and some emotional parts. Story is vague, gameplay is nice but not the reason why the game is good. It is quite short, but for the cheap price it still gets the 5 stars

Good things out of the way first: no doubt, the game is extremely pretty, the environment and creatures are very creative. But as a gaming experience I can only describe it as frustrating. All merit is lost on me if I have to repeat the same crappy jump 10000 times. One wrong twitch of the finger and you're back to square one. Also, it took me a few rounds of googling to understand some parts of the games (like the mementos). Not saying the game should spell everything out, but at leastsuggest if something is important for the game so the player doesn't miss out if they didn't pick up random glow-y object that turns out to be important later.

Beautiful graphics, it's art Very calming experience

Good graphics and music
