More of an interactive story than a game
The linearity of play, lack of puzzles, and limited opportunities to die make this feel more like an interactive story than a game. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it is something to be aware of. Once you get past the poorly animated opening scene of the mother drowning (a hand-drawn still, like they used in Bastion, would have been better than the clumsy use of the Unreal engine), the game mechanic of controlling two characters is both fun and clever. There are some optional things to do in this very short game/story, but the GOG version lacks the achievements of the Steam version (though the Achievements menu option is still there) and without recognition that you "did something" these moments just become tangents to the quest to save your sick father rather than game elements. Also, there is no gravitas to dying, which is a real missed opportunity considering the type of game/story this is. A simple cutscene, even if only words, rather than automatically loading the last checkpoint when you die, something like "...and so the brothers joined their mother in the afterlife, and without medicine, their father soon followed" would have enhanced the playing experience. Overall, Brothers is enjoyable experience, and I'd certainly buy a sequel, but for the few hours of "gameplay", don't it at full price.
