This game is simply beautiful ...

This game is a walking sim but it is also so much more than your usual walking sim in which you simply walk around and get the story told piece by piece in chronological order until the game ends. In this game you will play a supernatural animal in a spiritual and sureal setting and you are basically free to explore. While exploring you will find artifacts that will tell you parts of the story and you will also find collectibles. The story is not told in a chronological order so it is up to you to figure out how everything fits together. After discovering some bits ofthe story you will get additional abilities. Some will make it easier for you to get around others might also be required to unlock future parts of the story. How this all works in detail would be too much of a spoiler and I really recommend to play this game blind and let yourself surprise what the game has in store for you next. The game has 7 chapters each looking a bit different but every chapter is looking beautiful in its own way. The animal you control is really well animated and it makes fun running and jumping around or using some of the other abilities that you will unlock while playing. Everything is animated with love and it is simply fun to look at it and enjoy the atmosphere and the setting while looking for the next colectible or story event which is also fully voiced and I enoyed the voice over as well. The story itself is really emotional and touching. Add to this the amazing score that fits the game like a glove and makes it even better. This is actually one of the few soundtracks I immediately purchased here on GOG after I've finished the game.

Enjoyable, Unique, & Mesermizing Journey

Wow, The Companion s magical! Playing it left me with a feeling of wonder. I was mesmerized by the gorgeous soundtrack, unique and colourful environments, and the relaxing gameplay. The controls are smooth and easy, there's a sense of momentum and discovery, and everything shines when it lets you explore your own way forward. This game feels very cozy, literally like stumbling into a tranqil spot in the woods. Away from the rush of daily life, The Companion offers a glimpse into a cosmic realm where you can discover spirits and destiny and what it means to be part of the cycle of life. Honestly, the greatest compliment I can give is that this game belongs right up there with amazing greats such as Okami and Journey. One of the best expereinces I've had gaming!!

Stunning visuals without substance

I really really wanted to like this game. I love story driven games, but i just couldn't get into this one. The game just stars with the initial voice over telling you something about destiny and then the game starts. The gameplay consits of you just running around collecting shiny things and that's it-i would much prefer if the game just lead me in linear fashion from one cutscene to another rather thant this pseudo-open world running around Assasin's creed style collecting things. And also, there is now way for you to skip a custcene-i accidentaly triggered one of the cutscenes for second time and you CAN NOT skip it. On top o f that, if the game shows you something/gives prompt/want you to focus on something then it does so in very weird and forced way. Instead of smoothly adjusting your camera it just freezes your character(even in midair if you happen to jump before) and after like 1-2seconds it displays a pop-up with the information. Felt really weird. In Summary, after less than 1h of play i am leaving unimpressed, but won't be seeking a refund since 1USD(got game on sale) is worth at least the stunning visuals which are really great

Beautiful but Dreary

The scenery is beautiful but the game as a whole is undercut by a constant feeling of melancholy. I'm sure you'll love the game if you're into that kind of thing. It just wasn't my thing. I hope the author keeps working on new things because I'd love to see what he comes up with. Maybe something more upbeat?
