I didn't even know you could pick up objects to start with, until I went to save the game and quit and saw some slightly cryptic pictures over pictures of the Switch buttons. After the initial cutscene you are free to do what you wish - but there's no shred of explanation, or tutorial for explaining the mechanics or the controls. You start off your adventure by mindlessly kicking a ball down the road, when you hear a kerfuffle in the aforementioned house, and investigate. There's very little to help guide the player in the beginning of the game. Second: This weird D-pad symbol kept randomly appearing, which was a mystery until I realised it shows what you are holding.
He gets older during the game, but not a lot less creepy.įirst: The only information you get on how to manipulate objects. I recoiled from the screen when he first showed his face in the game. The playable character is especially weird - he looks like a tired, 40-year-old man inside a little boy's body. Everything about the game is slightly creepy, enhanced by the fact that it seems like it is supposed to be a little cute.
It kind of looks like Pixar remaking Rocko's Modern Life, with Tim Burton supervising the process, but everyone running out of money partway through. I like that it has its own style, and isn't just a copy of other games. The controls are awkward, the visuals are weird, and the puzzles simply aren't great. Unfortunately, the game fails to live up to its exciting premise.
