Artistic triumph. The atmosphere surrounds you from the first moments of the game, and grow with every step of the way. The fear you feel is real, from the danger your put in, the subtle animations of your character, and the growing understanding of the stakes of the world. This is a game that tells a complex, compelling, and harrowing story without saying a word. Of course, that leads to some who say that none of what you're seeing truly means anything, since by the end it doesn't form a cohesive narrative or easy metaphor. But I feel like actual art requires work on the part of the audience to create their own meaning out of imagery, emotion, and symbolism.

This game contains heavy themes, and depictions of child death (in multiple visceral manners). While I'd recommend this game to anyone, please take warning.
