Never played a game like that...

I was curious to play this game because I read reviews about it and some of them praised it and others criricised it. I finished the game in few hours and now I can tell you my opinions. Basically it's not a game, you can't interact with anything from the surrounding environment, you just keep walking on mountainous paths and discover caves whilst listening to excerpts from letters. You have to be attentive to the words so you could understand the story. It's a story about death, about dying and about the transcending of human soul. I must day I remained "bouche bee" in front of the landscapes depicted in this game. It's poetry all around. It's sadness and in the same time the question "why?" lingers all around. The music is something as some classical masterpiece and the end, well I never seen an end like that. Total blackness, death itself...
