Wow. I read someone finished this game in four hours. It's taken me twenty hours over several evenings to reach the fifth -- and final -- level. I got to the "boy falling" scene tonight. I just realized I haven't quite finished. This game is relaxing and frustrating at the same time. Very well done! Cons: Odd user interface. Annoying "zoomed in" view; this helps visibility-impaired players however. Back button does not exit: a stupid thing is now common.

Gorogoa is a fresh take on interactive puzzle games. I was thrilled to get to teach myself how to interact with this world and it was a very rewarding process to progress. The story itself has a decent pace too. If you take a break between gaming sessions, you might have to solve a short section again but it doubles as a refresher as to what was going on. The sale got me, idk if you'll find it worth full price though. Regardless, you will have to think outside the box to get through this one!

To say this game is mind-blowing would do it a disservice. Visually, it's stunning. Aside from that, we have the unusual gameplay, something I've never seen before, and the underlying haunting story of a city in ruins and its injured inhabitants, all too reminiscent of war-torn countries in the news. There are puzzles here, and they do involve a bit of perseverance, but I wouldn't call this a puzzle game; the puzzles seem more a way to understand this world. Easily one of the best.
