What it does best
A meta-story that makes the player part of the fiction
A small story with enormous emotional weight
Melancholy, strange, and tender from start to finish
A soundtrack inseparable from its sense of place
What might put you off
Puzzles can feel arbitrary and uneven
The meta gimmicks can feel manipulative
