It's not often that a game will have you weep and cry, witnessing a truly both joyful and heartbreaking story like the one in Brothers, tale of two sons. Some of you might want to play this this when there's nobody around to disturb your play through. The game is short. In maybe one, two or three sessions you will have seen how it ends. If you're the type of person who really loves those stories that have their somber and cheerful moments, like the Neverending Story for example, this would be the game for you. But when you'd rather just play something fun and lighthearted, and don't care so much for story right now, you might not want this game, or hold off on playing it for a while. Anyway, the controls are easy, provided that you are playing this with a gamepad. A modern standard one, with two analog sticks. You play the two brothers, each one is moved around by one of the analog sticks, and LB is the use button of the bigger brother, RB the use button for the younger. And you play them both, controlling them simultaneously. You solve mild puzzles in a breeze. Almost nothing will keep you long, typically. The game is fairly easy. Some puzzles require that one brother gives the other a boost. The younger brother hasn't learned how to swim, so some puzzles require that the older brother will swim as the younger brother holds on tight. There is great variety in those puzzles, and they're well thought out. Scenery and mood will change. Drastically. This is an adventure that should only be seen, not told. Go, play it! It's fantastic!
