Before Your Eyes

Netflix, Inc.

About this game

Available exclusively for Netflix members.

Embark on an emotional first-person adventure where you control the story — and affect the outcome — with your real-life blinks.

Dive into a world of memories and experience a soul’s journey into the afterlife as your whole life flashes before your eyes.

It all begins after you die. You're aboard the ship of a mysterious man tasked with shepherding souls to the afterlife. To help you pass on, he must learn the story of your life. Then he sends you back to relive your most important moments.

The game uses your device's camera to fully immerse you in the story. Control the flow of the narrative with your real-life eyes – blinking through precious memories of family, first love and the birth of an artistic career. Dare to look deeper and delve into your most repressed memories, where a heartbreaking truth awaits.

Combining an innovative blink-interaction mechanic with a charming world and fully voice-acted story, Before Your Eyes is a deeply emotional and relatable journey — one that explores the impossible expectations we place on ourselves and the regrets we carry with us.

Ratings and reviews

I loved it! Although the blinking mechanic is a bit rusty if you dont have completely optimum conditions, you can play without the real life eye detection so its fine. Im happy its on mobile now! The graphics are really good and I recommend it! Also the point of the game is that you naturally blink eventually, they know that you might miss some things because of it. For the few people who seem to be angry about the main purpose of the game?

Y'all, this game is phenomenal. The idea to use your real life blinking to skip thru memories is incredible, and yeah of course sometimes it goes ahead when you didn't blink or doesn't register when you do, but I mean the fact that it gets it right 90% of the time is just insane! It really just blows my mind, and the story of the game is just flat out incredible. It's so sweet and had me not able to put it down, I played it in one sitting! I definitely recommend trying it out, it's just so good

The blinking mechanism could be a bit more smooth in some parts of the game that need it, but if you blink or tap slow enough it'll work out, otherwise, it's such a beautiful game; and the music was just wonderful! Would recommend to anyone, truly something to experience.
