SOLITUNE Reviews

SOLITUNE is a truly unique game that combines the beauty of nature and the power of music. As a player, you take on the role of a shepherd, tasked with caring for sheep and helping out others in the community. The game provides an incredibly immersive experience as you move from space to space and explore the stunning visuals. What really makes this game stand out is the stunning soundtrack composed by Ludwig Hanisch. His music helps to create a sense of peaceful escapism and allows you to really immerse yourself in the game. I highly recommend SOLITUNE to anyone looking for a truly unique gaming experience.

Simply story about how to be good shepard, but it's short and bad graphics and not entertain me.

SOLITUNE is a small daydream about escaping from the toils of everyday life, and leading others away as you do. It's not a revelation, nor does it have a particularly deep message, but sometimes it's fun to dream. And I'd welcome many more dreams if they were all as beautiful and chill as this one.

A [i]very[/i] short game, but at the same time a [b]very[/b] beautiful and cute game with a philosophical story. For those that like small and quirky games, I recommend this. The vignette art-style is pleasing to look at, and listening to the characters talk is nice to spend 10 minutes and a cup of coffee with. Not much more to say about this short game. Play it if you like small, shot and cute experiences in the form of games.

Solitune goes under the Art game umbrella and does it well; This is kind of an interactive art piece with calming aesthetic... It's more like a relaxation ambient album with visuals. Good idea for "electric" postcard to cheer up a friend or something like that

It's only about 20 minutes long, but it's a neat little Adventure where you move from room to room after solving puzzles. The game has a great aesthetic, and a neat abstract sense of style, as does its fabulous protagonist. It has a nice message, I guess, but it's a bit idealistic; its philosophy comes with problems that aren't given any real solutions within the game. Still, I really enjoyed what I had; definitely worth checking out, if you're into this sort of thing.

There were a few people here who said the puzzles were kinda nonsense, the game is more about the content and the theme it deals with. And it also says so in the description: "is a very short adventure game about escaping reality" Well, there wasn't that much adventure in it, but it's a nice little game that makes you think about some stuff. The soundtrack is good and fitting, the general sound design was okay, a bit too generic for my taste.

If you're looking for something action packed or with difficult puzzles then Solitune is not for you. It's a relatively short game with a beautiful art style, fantastic music, and a story that I feel a lot of people can relate to. The description of the game is pretty much spot on. You want a new life and take on the role of a shepherd as part of getting to that new life. You gather your flock and that's it. The puzzles are pretty basic and won't leave you banging your head on your desk. The game is also pretty short, but I feel it accomplishes everything it needs/wants to in that time. Despite the short length, the cheap price tag makes it feel as if you got your money's worth. A quick playthrough: https://youtu.be/QcIJuW7S0b8

[b] Well, time to flip my life upside down [/b] This goes through a really simple story of someone sick of their life going in circles and want to become a shepherd. As you go through more doors, this dream comes closer to reality. Each room you go into holds a person wanting to change their own life. Not being able to do it, this is where you come in to help guide them. Turning into sheep following you as you go into the next room. Bringing you closer to your own goal, as your clothing, actions, and being followed by sheep is fulfilled. This is not exactly a puzzle game, even though it may seem like it. The rooms are easy to figure out and only a few really gets you to scratch your head. I really love how each room had different designs and ways to make the resident talkative. Each being unique from each other as they represent the person and what has made that room hectic to them. This is a really short game, coming out as a 15 minute experience for me, so be sure to know that before going in. I know that a lot of people base their choices on game time, so if you are kinda reluctant on spending $2 for a short experience I would wait for a discount.

SOLITUNE is a very passive, very brief experience with some colorful, well-done visuals with very little player interaction that ends up being mostly nonsense. SOLITUNE is a very short (15 minutes total, you see almost every single envrionment you will experience in the game in the 1:00 minute trailer) surreal, relaxing experience with very minimalistic gameplay. You play as a "shepherd" entering a series of small rooms which have an NPC in them you're unable to talk to until you click on the right sequence of things throughout the environment, which then unlock a door for you that leads to the next room to do the same process. You do this about 7 times and then the game ends. You walk around and click on things and random surreal moments happen, such as trees sprouting from behind you or binders stuck in trees that then shake loose and you click on them when they're on the ground to stack them next to a character, or clicking on some lights until they match the color displayed on a computer monitor in the same room. Aside from the color-matching sequence mentioned (or another where you match 3 icons to be the same on another set of computer monitors) the "puzzles" / sequences never have much logic to them beyond just happening to click on objects randomly until you've exhausted all options and the NPC then unlocks and says a few cryptic, wannabe profound lines to you and then you go to the next room to do the same thing. You do this about 7 times then after a brief scene the game just sits there forever (did my game freeze??) with a bunch of sheep lined up below you, crouched down, until you choose to exit the game. The incessant bleating from the sheep as you progress from room to room after helping the NPCs (get it??? The sheep are the people you're helping!! *MINDBLOWN*) becomes very loud and grating as you explore the mostly calm environments. This game's art style and colorful visuals are its most appealing aspects. I did enjoy seeing what random, surreal moments would occur in the environments and I didn't expect this game to have complex gameplay, but even when taking those into consideration I feel like SOLITUNE was pretty to look at with not much else going for it.
