Although at first glance, Inside might just be another simplistic side-scrolling walking simulator game, it doesn't take long for it to go beyond its initial premise.

What makes Inside such an alluring and mysterious game is the way it tells its story. Throughout the three hour journey into this bleak world, none of what is presented to you is ever really explained, even after the credits rolled, adding to the sense of mystery.

And even if it may lack in a straight-forward storytelling, it still manages to elicit a strong sense of connection with its playable character, making the game's third act all the more horrifying.

One thing that surprised me about the game though was that it avoids the typical trial and error aspect that you'd often see in these kinds of game. Of course, there's still some parts that requires it but it's not as often as you think.

I also love how every set pieces are filled with tension, heightened by the incredible sound design that the game has.

Inside had managed to bring me into a world unlike any other, one that is filled with dread and hopelessness, and it's one that I would love to visit again soon.
