Gone Home is essentially an interactive story. And it is a very anticlimactic and unsatisfying story. It has the appearance of an adventure game without any real adventure. You basically trash your parents' house looking for clues about your family and what may or may not have recently happened that may or may not be interesting or compelling. At first, you feel like you are going to have an immersive experience, but the thinness of the story emerges quickly, and the flatness of the game play leads to disinterest quickly. It is mercifully short. I paid full price when this game first came out to amazing critical reviews. It was truly a waste of money. The music albums that come with the game are all abysmal and unlistenable. There are many more interesting adventure games here on GOG. Stay clear of this one.
