Superb game for intellectuals
The game won't appeal to the majority of Angry Birds enthusiasts, but those who appreciate the finer arts of life are in for a rare treat. The music will emotionally captivate you and the art style will leave you craving to see what happens next. Excellent game that isn't for everyone.
The best iPhone game ever
Simply amazing. It is a work of art. It pays tribute to great classic pc games like kings quest and shadow of the beast but it has an immersive quality that goes beyond any game I've ever played. You feel like you have been transported to another world. Bad reviews in the AppStore are from 12 year olds that are disappointed by the lack of exploding birds. Don't listen to them. Get this game.
#greatscottjustwalkingisprettycool
Finally! I've played alot of games for the iPhone but haven't ever bothered to review one until now. One of the few games I've played that departs from controlls that, given touch gamings relatively young age, shouldn't be as tired and played out as they feel- #pressonebuttontowin? Interesting gameplay lets users interact with a beautifully crafted old school meets art-piece world (i think immediately of Lucas arts point and click adventure, Loom) a catchy soundtrack, wit-soaked dialogue, and self aware humor make this game a pleasure to play through (slow as it is at times). Though not at all like Shadow of the colossus, this game has a similar #gamesthatarealsoart feel. Interesting that you can retweet dialogue to encourage social problem solving? This game has me inventing hash tags, rethinking my lack of interest in twitter and going back just to see it all again.
