I hesitate to really call it a game, since there's nothing really gamey about it. Journey is really the right world to describe it, and about 2 hours at best.

But really impressive stuff, never played anything else like it.

of course it is a game, you control it and it has some simple puzzle elements.

I hope it influences other games because I like some of the things this game does well. the multiplayer aspect is good. you don't have to worry about some stupid kid talking nonsense, if you get stuck with a partner who you don't enjoy playing with you can just ignore them. the atmosphere is amazing. I only played through once and I had a friend play through it and watched them. the game does have a few bugs but I only ran into one show stopper and my friend ran into another. so 2 bugs in 2 playthroughs isn't so bad. The game was fun to experience from beginning to end, even if it was fairly short. I'm certain I'll play through it again so it was easily worth the cost. If you're on the fence go for it and I encourage you to have a friend play it who knows absolutely nothing about it and don't help them. just have them play it. I really think it's a rare game that almost anyone can pick up and enjoy.
