Before your eyes
What a short and sweet game man 😩
This game shows a beautiful story with a great message using a very unique medium unlike other games.... BLINKING.
Everytime you blink the game moves forward in time showing you the life of the main protagonist. And this method for some reason fits really really well.
The story is around 1.5hrs long but the ending sequence has to be one of the best ones in any narrative games, it just combined the best thing about the sweet story with the blinking mechanic so well that it was no less than pure CINEMA.
Would really not recommend to play the game without the blink feature; if you don't have a webcam, you can use your phone as a camera for your pc and use it to play the game....the blinking just brings the charm to the game and it's very much recommended from my side. I had a few fair share of issues with the game counting blinks when I moved my head even a little so had to play the game without moving my head even an inch lol. (The game is short so that wasn't a big deal)

9.2/10
Y'all are sleeping over such a great game if you haven't tried this yet. This game is very cheap on sales and the ending itself is worth every penny I spent on the game.







PS - One of my friend also played the game using my Family Share copy and wanted me to include his review alongside mine so here you go ig...
Short but sad yet very sweet experience. Even though i finished it in about an hour and a half, this game really uplifted my mood. It tells a bittersweet story in a really nice and unique way. The ending sequence felt really warm and comforting. Nothing much to say really without spoiling the experience, just a very cool and beautifully well crafted made game.

Also, please do not use the clicking mode instead of blinking to progress, its OKAY to miss out some details, thats just life! Witnessing and understanding everything that happens around you in never possible, some things are meant to go unnoticed by us. So just enjoy the experience the way its meant to be, and no need to force yourself to see everything, its all going to be okay...
