a narrative puzzle game with some interesting ideas that occasionally get a bit obscure, but the narrative has a strong enough thread to follow that i enjoyed it throughout.

Podríamos resumir que The Almost Gone es una aventura simple. Que busca contarnos una historia de la perdida de los vínculos familiares, de como una toxicidad puede venir desde hace varias generaciones.
The Almost Gone es un buen juego, entretenido, con buenos puzzles, escenarios bonitos y una historia peculiar que vale la
pena conocer.

Recomendado. ✔

Short puzzle game with some interesting ideas.
Very deep story in the background told through the puzzles.
Would recommend to get.

It only took me 2 hours to complete the actual game, and the 5 hours is just for 100% completion, which is a bit odd choice by the devs but whatever.

I thought this game was pretty good! As a puzzler it wasn't too difficult, but definitely tricky enough to keep me interested throughout, with only a handful of frustrating moments (usually because I didn't rotate the screen correctly). The tone I quite liked, but unfortunately it wasn't always clear exactly what was interactable a lot of the time, so when I did get stuck (which wasn't too often but still), I would end up frantically clicking every surface which spoiled that good tone somewhat. Still, a good story and puzzles at the end of the day, worth checking out.

Played this on Netflix which is the most insane sentence ever but uhhh yeah it was decent. cool puzzles but I dislike intentional vagueness in stories

The story is pretty heavy. It is vague, yes, but somehow I'm okay with being left to wonder what really had happened. The mechanics of the game is easy, you just click around to read stories, find items and use them to solve puzzles, which lead you further down the fucked-up rabbit hole.
