I am trying to be a game reviewer and have thus gotten into the habit of commenting upon every game I play, or making a mental note to do so later on... This one is raw, unedited, and packs my full emotional spectrum into each and every word. The mixture of the main character's love and affection for the wife he lost, and the reality of his mental illness leading to her death and his eternal misery. Truly sad, and yet strangely beautiful. The challenging aspects of the game were enjoyable, the artistry and music tied it all together beautifully, so that every single shadow seemed to truly come alive, not in the animated sense, but in the idea that each one was a life, a possibility, a soul...
I replayed it, placed the main character with his wife on the first level they met, and exited the game without moving on to the next level. At least with that mental image I can move on knowing that they truly loved one another...

I come back to this game once in awhile. I've beat it numerous times, but I always get something different out of the message.

Love the way the Gameplay and the Story are intertwined. The metaphor and main game mechanic are so beautifully fused it's hard to lose track of the meaning.
