The game came at just the right time. I played it at a time in my life when I myself was very aimless and, like the game's protagonist, had embarked on a kind of search for meaning. Sable is a very unique, very atmospheric exploration game with no combat and no possibility of dying or otherwise failing. I loved being carried through the desert on my hoverbike, exploring ruins and uncovering secrets of the world. The dialogue was well written, funny but not silly, and often with a dose of melancholy that I really enjoyed. Unfortunately, the game is an absolute technical disaster on PC. I constantly had flickering textures, performance drops and very strange sound bugs, which often disturbed the overall experience. Nevertheless, this journey through the desert planet will stay with me for a long time. What a beautiful and extraordinary game.
