After years of delay, this beautiful-looking indie game is finally finished – but is it really as unique as it looks

None of those puzzles are very difficult or original, and the platforming is even more straightforward; Mishandled storytelling, and a general lack of challenge or context

Just reading through the reviews and see that someone's opening comment is wow. I've just completed the game and that was my first thought, wow, what a gem of a game. An emotional rollercoaster with some truly stunning moments. The visuals surpass journey and the story for me was amazing.
