What players say

The game is really good and gorgeous. I've only completed half of the game so far, but I'll finish it this week. Just be aware that this game can use more than 7 GB of VRAM. It didn't impact performance much on my RTX 3070, but it may be a problem on lower-end machines. On my system, it only maxed out my GPU memory in the city. Specs: * Full HD * Everything on High, but textures on Medium

Pretty fun platformer game. Some of the puzzles are a little hard but not to bad. The jumping is very floaty.

This is an amazing game. Very original, Gives us a profound message and warning of all the harm humans are causing to the only world we live in. Very well thought with beautiful graphics with beautiful scenes and lots of tense moments. If you love and respect animals you will like it even more.
