Somerville isn't as hard as previous games made by this dev team, makers of both Limbo and Inside which I played and finished both late last year and early this year. The puzzles are more straightforward and not as mind puzzling which in my opinion is good sometimes so you can just enjoy the story. This game I believe benefits from being more of a simpler 2d puzzler game as I was able to enjoy the story and art style more.

The story is good simple find your family plot but it works well,

Gameplay is simple enough with only 2 abilities throughout the whole game the mechanic of them is really fun. I honestly only had an issue with 1 or 2 puzzles as I wasn't really thinking hard enough.

Music is quite good simple enough that it blends into the background of the game that you don't even know it is there.

Art is lovely and unique and really pops in the colorful parts.

I would recommend this if you have game pass (I played it like this) , get it on a sale and or a big fan of the developers previous 2 games
