This one hit hard. The gimmick of the game is that you have to blink your eyes to control the game and progress forward, but not only does it make sense in the context of the story (which the ferryman comments upon), it plays right into the idea that life can slip you by in the blink of an eye. And it's one of the most devastating and well told stories I've experienced in a video game, accomplishing exactly what it means to do in an hour and a half. A very powerful game that you should play through in a single sitting if you're looking for an emotional experience.
