FuZion Well-Known Member Jul 18, 2011 146 0 16 #6 FuZion, Sep 28, 2017 Bit of a plot, but no upgrades. This is one of those artsy experiences. And I loved it on PS3/PS4. Instability for me. Yes it's tilt control but that's how it is on the consoles & I couldn't imagine it any other way. Quoad Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2015 1,094 205 63 #7 Quoad, Sep 28, 2017 Hmmmm. Artsy experiences.

Nullzone ð® Spam Police ð Jul 12, 2013 3,669 79 48 Male #11 Nullzone, Sep 28, 2017 Just played a few minutes. Despite the tilt controls (holding anything like an Air hurts my hands fast, RSI), whow. Very very trippy. djstout Well-Known Member Jul 21, 2011 2,672 97 48 Sportscaster & football (soccer) coach Taiwan & Japan #12 djstout, Sep 29, 2017 Oh tilt controls means no thank you Finandir Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze May 7, 2010 250 0 16 #13 Finandir, Sep 29, 2017 This is one of the only games that I insta-bought even with the tilt controls - that is the original design from PS3. I played this one a lot on both the PS3 and PS4. I'm looking forward to playing again. MetaGonzo Well-Known Member May 7, 2009 1,442 257 83 #14 MetaGonzo, Sep 29, 2017 Fear not, tilt-haters. Control is spot on. Source: I am a tilt-hater. dancingcrane Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Apr 16, 2016 53 0 6 #15 dancingcrane, Sep 29, 2017 Good to know bc I too am a tilt hater. Getting this when I have room ( iPhone too full atm!) orangecan Well-Known Member Aug 9, 2011 1,997 145 63 #16 orangecan, Sep 29, 2017 Ok well I cracked and bought it - confirmed tilt hater - I don't think the controls are perfect there were a few times during the first area where I felt like they needed recalibrating but it didn't detract from it at all. It's a lovely thing - I've never played it before but Journey is one of my favorite games and I'm not at all disappointed in this. Roleki Well-Known Member Aug 11, 2012 432 0 0 #17 Roleki, Sep 30, 2017 So how long does a playthru take? Is there any replay value? I like chillax games as much as the next guy, but at that price point I want commensurate bang for my buck. Finandir Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze May 7, 2010 250 0 16 #18 Finandir, Sep 30, 2017 Depending on how quickly you play, you could probably get through the game in a couple of hours. On the other hand, you can just spend time blowing around on the breeze for quite a bit longer. The graphics and sound are really great. As for replay value, I have played on PS3, PS4, and now iPhone. If you like indie games that are really full of atmosphere, then this is well worth buying. If you want more "game" instead of exploring and very simple puzzles, then it may not be to your liking. Unfortunately, on my iPhone 7 Plus, I had a few freezes (which cleared up on their own) and it kicked me back to the beginning of level 2 when I was playing last night. I'll see if a restart helps before playing the next time, since my phone has been running awhile without one and I had lots of apps open. Hopefully this will be updated fairly quickly. But the game play, including tilt controls that I usually hate, work pretty well here. imdakine1 Well-Known Member Aug 23, 2011 1,229 22 38 #19 imdakine1, Oct 1, 2017 Although I am a total tilt hater this one looks interesting enough to try one day... initially I couldn't tell if this game hasaby true ending by from prior TA user I guess it does have an ending... Is it truly open world in the sense I could keep going in any dkrsextion I want or is it more oath driven based on where the flower petals have been placed? Finandir Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze May 7, 2010 250 0 16 #20 Finandir, Oct 1, 2017 It isn't truly open world in that you will hit boundaries to the world. That being said, within those boundaries you can roam around a level pretty freely. When you do hit a boundary, the wind will blow you back in the direction you just came from until you are inside the boundaries again. This is in keeping with the rest of the game since you have only tilt to control direction and a single touch to make the wind blow the way you are facing. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
