Final verdict

out of 10

One of the best games I have played to date! This game is an emotional plot about how grief impacts families and those around us. Everyone handles it differently, and I think the game shows how dynamics will change.

The first act really gets you thinking about what the world is, then it hits hard with killing off Gustave and revealing that there's more to the world than you can initially see.

The combat system is really fun - it's a turn-based JRPG, and you can also parry enemies on their turn, which is incredibly important to learn.
