And, yes, it is just as wonderful as all the reviews claim.
You start as a cloaked figure in a desert. On the horizon you can see a mountain with a light. And so, with bare instruction and no understanding, you start toward it.
Journey is a combination of evocative music and visual beauty and a story stripped of any language that you understand. It is very short, but I think is the sort of precious jewel of a game that you keep by for the grey days, when you want to be uplifted.
Well recommended.
I've wanted to play this game, though as of right now I have about a 30 game backlog between all my systems and the PC XD I did buy the OST though, so yes the music is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very short game! You can finish it easily in an hour or so.
DeleteThat is good to hear! I need more short games (and not just games that are being released as episodes--looking at you Dreamfall Chapters x.x )
