I haven't finished playing yet but for now I can say that the game is really atmospheric - and I mean *really*. The music and sound design are awesome, the vibe pretty spooky. I like the full narration and appreciate that the player can choose between 3 difficulty options, and 2 "levels" of narration. The story seems engaging, I really like the world building. I'd say it's different from the original Kona, but it's still a very nice game. My only issue is with the controls but that might be because I'm using mouse+keyboard, it might be better with a controller. Still, overall it's a very cool game!
Loved every part of this game. From the story to the vibe, the design, and the music. Well done.
I'm a sucker for such games so I won't be objective. That being said, Under the Waves does a lot of things really well: the atmosphere is great, the slow pace of the story - great, the audio-visual side simply awesome. There are some small bugs but the autosave feature works well (very often) so I haven't had to repeat anything yet. It crushed on me once but then re-launched without issues. I love the story so far, it's sad but told really well. 5/5 from me! :)
What can I say - it's a perfect continuation to the first game. I had never really got into stealth games, but these... these hit different. Maybe it's the open world, the many ways you can approach tough situations, the story, or the universe. Whatever it is, it's got me hooked!
