I absolutely loved this game. The artwork is creative and immersive, and allows you to sink right into the story despite the lack of realism. The story is intimate, and brutally honest in terms of the violence and tragedy of World War I, and although I disagree with a few of the historical theories presented-the facts are entirely accurate. The controls are very tight, and I did not find many bugs at all while playing the game. The puzzles are clever, but certainly not particularly complicated. This I personally like, as it means the story continues fluidly without any awkward interruptions. I openly admit that I cried at the end of this game. Absolutely fabulous.
Conclusion: I really recommend that you try this game. Every now and again I encounter a game that I want to spread around and try to get as many people as possible to play to share my wonderful experience-this is definitely one of those. Don’t miss it!
