GRIS

This game is just gorgeous. The landscape, coupled with the music is amazing. The game play is also nothing to sneeze at. The rules are constantly evolving without leaving you behind. It's a paltformer that doesn't punish you for exploring or taking risks. Just a really great time over all. Highly recommended.

The game is definitely beautiful all around, from the gorgeous art and animations, to the delightful music and immersive sound design. It was a true feast for the eyes and ears! Gameplay wise, it was certainly simple, but lended itself nicely to the story and controls. Puzzles were never too hard, but did require some thoughtfulness and planning at times. Now for the main part, the story: I absolutely loved the way her story was told throughout the game. From the beginning, filled with grief and depression, where everything is gray and gloomy and to start you can barely move, each step taking all of the energy you had. But as you go on through the chapters, color starts to come back to your life, you learn new coping mechanisms and are able to overcome the obstacles that used to block your way and prevent you from moving on. The darkness that worked against you, you learn to embrace and use to help you move forward. You begin to see the beauty and joy in everything around you. And by the end, you are surrounded by the beautiful colors, able to run and jump and swim and fly and sing again! Even when that darkness comes back and tries to wreck you all over again, you’ve learned to overcome and continue to live in joy and happiness. The ending had my whole body in goosebumps, and it is definitely an experience I will remember for a long time. Definitely recommended, especially to anyone who has ever dealt with sadness, grief, and depression.

Enjoy the music, enjoy the puzzles, enjoy the journey

This is the best looking game I ever played. The gameplay is fun but nothing special. The music is amazing. But it’s more than the sum of its part. It creates a really unique experience that is worth playing
