Play Overview
The game uses the interactions and characters you meet to evoke the emotions of loneliness and desire for companionship. The result is a surprisingly deep story where you soon start rooting for your faceless circular character.
The simple visuals and quality of the writing make this more than a novelty. It's a game that examines angst, anxiety and impermanence. It's intelligent use of minimal colour creates calming and beautiful spaces to explore.

Skill Level
7+ year-olds usually have the required skill to enjoy this game. Really young players can still enjoy the game provided they have good reactions and a willingness to persevere. The philosophical part of the game is communicated via the text you read and may go over the head of the youngest players, but they can still enjoy the platform challenge.
