[Home Story: 1971]

A beautiful game with heart-wrenching emotions hovering about the atmosphere that surrounds an innocent girl on her birthday. This game gives a very melancholy and simple way of telling a story about a family of once four and now three. The hints throughout the game as to what happened were nicely subtle and gave substance to the backstory. The overall game-play was rather simple, but it wasn't really about playing a game; it was about seeing the perspective of loss through the eyes of a young girl that either can't or wont connect the pieces. It felt somewhat detached, but it didn't take much to see the pain the family is experiencing. This is a beautiful looking game that tugs at your heartstrings if you allow it to. I feel sad that the girl will have to come to terms with this in the future.

"What... the... f-" was my first response, because wow those bodies deformed so far into "whoa" that I didn't know what to do with myself. It was cool to watch the physics though and see all of the freaky poses they could make.

This game has quite an interesting story to it. It certainly peeked my interest as I was playing it. The quiet/slow start helps build up the suspense and fear as things begin happening. The thing that freaked me out the most was [spoiler] the room with the doll after the person appears.
The game doesn't jump out as amazing, but it is fun and the story is rather different than other games. I congratulate you on making an original story and experience.
