    A beautiful, boring world to explore 0

    Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is a game about exploring. You are in an abandoned village with no sign of anyone and a weird feeling in the air. You want to know what’s going on and you only way of finding out is by walking around and looking at things as well as listening to past conversations.The setting of the game is a small village in the UK and it absolutely stunning.

    Good story 0

    I enjoyed the story in the game even if some of it was a little hard to follow near the end. The game is gorgeous, loved wandering the countryside and the soundtrack is equally beautiful.

This makes backtracking and seeing everything tiresome if you have to jog all the way back through an area. If you enjoy a good artsy show with story I think you'll enjoy it but others might find it lacking....

The main argument is that of inter...

    Journey. Gone Home. Dear Esther. If you're a fan of any of these three games, the Chinese Room's newest entry into the narrative heavy walking simulator is the game for you, and only you. Dear Esther was the developer's previous title, a two hour experience that more closely resembled visual poetry than a game. Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture combines the visual and aural cues of the developer’s previous tale with a far more ambitious open world setting. Ambitious...and risky.Unders...
