    A brilliantly designed game, a story told with a deft and thoughtful touch. This is a modern Classic.

    Minimalism is an interesting idea, a concept where more is less has always been fascinating to me, even though I do not openly partake. When it comes to video games, it is a concept rarely pulled off with a deft touch, ... Read Full Review
