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

A beautiful, sad, but ultimately optimistic experience. I thoroughly enjoyed every second. The amount of LOVE put into it is so, so apparent. The unique gameplay mechanics definitely enhance the experience, but i did end up turning off motion/blinking features in order to see everything. It stressed me out a little, which was an intended part im sure. Id only wish for the option to turn off inverted controls on camera movement. A small price to pay.

I never write reviews these days, so if I do, that must mean a game deserves it, right? Absolutely. Before Your Eyes is a thoughtfully engineered experience meant to truly immerse you into the world that the game is set in. There is so many things perfect with this game. The only reason that I gave it 4 stars instead of five is because of minor lighting bugs and the eye tracking being off at times. These don't really hinder the enjoyment of a playthrough, though, so I still highly recommend it.

Great game! The calibration worked perfectly for me. I think the technology has many different factors though. I loved the story. It's heartwarming. My only issue was saving the game. It doesn't save where you left off. It goes back a bit and you have to redo some of it. It felt like an old school game where you start on the last save portal that you passed. No big deal though. This game is well worth it!
