Purportedly, this "aims to humanise, and remember the victims of the 2011 Japanese tsunami."
I'm not normally drawn to topical "art games" and I wish I would have listened to my own internal advice with this one.

More of a glorified student project than a commercial production, it's not very technically competent and there isn't much artistic merit either. This basically amounts to a 15 minute linear walkthrough in a single level. It doesn't do anything interesting with the medium, in fact it squanders some potentially great imagery with its poor execution, which is doubly frustrating for me since the "lots of people on a beach under the stars" is something I'd use in my own projects.

Anyway, avoid this one unless you want it forever at the top of your steam games list.

Pretty cool "faster than brain" game experiment, although I miss a more thorough exploration of gameplay modes (there's only one) and the controls are in serious need of refinement.

Still, nice addition to any twitch based game collection.

Fun and absorbing but easy to get lost into. Kind of sparse if you are playing the single player mode. Having a guide on hand is recommended as there's very little in-game motivation to proceed other than your own exploratory drive.

In theory does a lot of things "wrong", especially in the first minutes of the game. In practice, its compulsion-based design makes you want to complete one more quest. I suspect it can be great fun with friends in multiplayer.

An addictive rpg with turn based tactical combat. More streamlined than Heroes of M&M due to only having one army to worry about.
