Like a 3D Celeste (climbing and exploration as a metaphor for self-affirmation and self-discovery), but with challenge dial turned way down, and the focus firmly on chill travelling. It's extremely beautiful, the art gets tens across the board. The pacifist, solarpunk, utopian politics of the game show that its heart is in the right place as well. The gaming aspects themselves are where the game fails, since most of them are pretty simplistic and feel like an afterthought, but i really enjoyed exploring the Le Guin-esque story and world, and nailed every single trophy just to see as much of it as possible.
