A strange, beautiful, and intriguing game that leads the player to think even after it ends. Anyone who claims that video games are not art is proven dead wrong by this game.

A heartfelt thanks to Dan theDragon and jstace comments for it is unlikely for me to finish this game sooner than expected^^ DEBAB~ what's the meaning??

A cliched attempt at grandeur. A horribly typical 'artsy' game with very little original thought. The black and white, the false world, questing for truth, all classic elements of such a game. Anyone that thinks this is creative, imaginative, or deep is not properly informed on the meaning of any of those three words.

Nice ending...did he die? Or was he just in a coma the whole time and the whole world was in his sub-conciousness and him escaping was him waking up? I love games like this

Actually, he dies. Did you not see the boatman reflected on the water? He's going to his death. The bird lied all along, and even told Pete so near the end. The huge lady in the sky told him to do the oposite of what the bird was telling because she didn't want him to die.
Plus, it ends with him fading into a white light. Sure, someone says "you're opening your eyes", and "I'll see you soon", that's just some final comforting thoughts.

This is a great game, and I agree, there should be a different section for these types of games, but then, how would we know which ones belonged there? Well, we can let the developers figure that one out.

ok anyone notice the man at the end in the water reflection of the boat was that the doctor or something else . but all opions aside i think the point of this game was to make you think to be honest i dont think there was really in right awnser i think the creator of this game wanted everyone to look at this game a different way ...

I really like messing with the songs on the piano here.
Try playing this song on it:

I read some of the comments and now that it is explained to me, I find the storyline quite good. Games like this one are rare and focus more on the feeling of the game. Good job :) 4/5

A tip : if you're stuck in a dark place and can't see anything, simply print screen, paste it in paint or whatever and reverse the colours.

Really loved MrHedge64 view on this game. Really gives another dimension and makes me appreciate the concept a whole lot more. Its great how well the artist uses the metaphores of subconscious.

Meh... Getting sick of these "different" games with poor gameplay. Just 'coz a game is different it doesnt mean its good. Everyone on kong is like a heard of sheep with their "ohhh its diferent, 5/5!!!"

The gameplay isn't the greatest but Tom Brush does an excellent job on creating music, sound effects and most of the artwork (the flowers and clouds being especially beautiful). It was recommended to me a while back and I recommend to give it a go, but don't expect to replay it often.

Similar games, that are more enjoyable and more moving are In The Company of myself, limbo, and loved. There is no imagination here, I could come up with a better plot right now, that is equally (as admirers of this game would call it) deep.
