It's a lovely title.

It's very story driven with no words involved. You can FEEL emotions out of the different animals and people in the game. The easter eggs and other game references are very in-depth.. I didn't expect Journey to be one of them, but maybe that was just a fluke.

The story itself can be finished in about 4-5 hours. Which isn't bad. They put a lot of thought into the game and level design, and the mechanics and gameplay is rather fun.

I would say that I do have a gripe with the QTE's (Quick Time Events) that're in game.. as well as some of the mini-games that are 'necessary' to progress the storyline. Some would have your immersion broken and derailed, and you'd have to restart at a checkpoint quite a far distance away. Its a bit of a shame that there isn't any sort of accessibility options for players that may struggle with timed tasks. Some of the tasks are SECONDS or you fail.

With how cute this game is, it could potentially draw in a playerbase that cannot handle that sort of pressure. And in all honesty, it should be noted that IF they had some mean's of turning those settings off, and just letting the story play out, as some would really like that to be the case, It's just not in the game.

But yes, if you've got a love for animals, especially dogs, or if you've ever lost a pet, this game is both amazing, and dreadful, and you might cry, I did.

Enjoy it tho, I did!
