    An utterly moving piece of art. Honestly, I'm a bit lost for words. I went into this game blind, not knowing what to expect, and I can say I'm very glad I did. It is basically a walking sim with a strong narrative that is almost novel-like. At this low price point, I highly recommend experiencing this hidden gem for yourself. It's brief but haunting and will stick with you long after the story is done. Bravo!

    As a South Tyroilian, I was excited about this game! The screenshots of the buildings look nice and the story of Curon is certainly well-suited to a Edith-Finch-like game. Bu then I saw the human characters. They do not fit into the quasi-realistic enviroments and remind me too much of Minecraft for a serious story. The writing is also rather strange.
