The Companion Reviews

Let's get the good out of the way: The music is AMAZING, the kind of uplifting track that makes you want to get out there and explore. Now if only the rest of is matched the mood. The is very little "gameplay" besides a few areas that need you to jump (clunkily, I might add) to climb up them. Each collectable you find automatically spawns a wisp to lead you to the next, and if you somehow manage to loose the one you're following, you can summon a new one at almost no cost. And the collectables are their own problem, which leads us to the next segment. The story. The story is shown by finding pillers of light, where you "get" to sit your ass down and watch some vague, glowy outlines with uninspired voices talk about a boring plot of a family moving out to the forest. Each one breaks what little gameplay flow you might have managed to build. It's pretty enough, and as I said the music is phenomenal, but there's not enough there to make that worth it. I wish it was, I really did, but it's not.

I found it kind of cheesy, I couldn't really get into it. I think it's the right game for some but it wasn't for me.
