Beautiful
This is a game to relax, very beautiful and with a nice story. No skills needed, there is no frustration but a little long-winded in parts.

Bittersweet, cute adventure game
Lost Words: Beyond the Page is a puzzle-platformer game where you play as a girl named Izzy, who was writing a fantasy story and trying to cope with her beloved grandma's illness. You can move her character both in her real-world journal, and her fantasy world of Estoria. The voice acting combined with the music makes me really emotional, and I won't lie, there are times when I can feel tears in my eyes and a cry coming up. Gamplay-wise, neither the puzzles nor the platforming are difficult at all. Puzzles mostly just involves picking the correct word from your Word Magic book, and applying it to the object hindering your progress. The platforming is also easy, mostly just jumps here and there, nothing too tricky such as timing-sensitive jumps which can take multiple tries to get right. There's also some choice elements, like how you can pick a name and color for Izzy's character and her outfit. Some other choices also makes minor changes in the world, fitting as Izzy's writing her story on the go. I say that Lost Words: Beyond the Page is a hidden gem. It's beautifully designed, colorful, easy, relaxing, cute, and emotional, all in one. Only bad thing I can say about this game is its length, which is pretty short (4-5 hours). But it doesn't lessen the emotional impact, which is the strong point of this adventure. If you're into puzzle-platformers you should try this game, especially if you need an easy one. But if you're someone looking for an emotional story in videogames, this is one title you shouldn't miss.

ONE-OF-A-KIND
One of those instances when a game is that well done that it becomes a piece of art. Just everything about it is beautiful. It is filled with emotion, sincerity, honesty and wisdom. The story of a your girl coping with loss and grief by writing a story and creating an imaginary place of escape is simply heart-touching. Every single part of this 'game' is well thought and polished with an utmost care. I highlky recommend it. 10 stars from me !

Charming, novel mechanics
I respect any game that showcases relatively novel mechanics, and this game certainly does that with the play with words. It has a realistic but creative approach to showing the journey of a child dealing with a difficult situation in life. A bit ham-fisted at times, but it might get a few tears out of you as well. The gameplay is fluid and fun with polished level design (maybe surprisingly so for a debut project from a small studio), and I can't wait to see what they come up with next!

Very emotional gem
This game is an absolute gem. It has an unique art style, with the journal sections being unique in presentation and how you interact with them. It is very respectful and emotional in regards to the story. Cannot say much else about it without going into spoilers, but trust that you will have a good experience if you like heartwarming and charming stories. I very much recommend it.
