GRIS

GRIS is an absolute masterpiece, slightly challenging in a good way. I've had it in my library for years as something I will eventually get around to. I am so glad I FINALLY got around to it! Definitely recommend it at full price, on sale it's an absolute steal

i havee no idea what im feelingg but im sobbing... i genuienlyy dont know how im supposed to put this into wordss. howw do youu even revieww smthh likee gris?? thiss wasnt jsut a gamee, it was a piece of art thats filled with emotions. a paintingg that somehow quietly learnedd how to breathee. a symphonyy that quietlyy reachedd into myy heart and pulled everyy feeling i had to the surfacee. ykk im actuallyy sittingg heree with tears in myy eyes, wondering howw a gamee withh zeroo dialoguee managedd to sayy moree than mostt storiess ever could. thee colors. the musics. thee silencee. thee worldd. everyy singlee momentt feltt sooooo alivee. watchingg Gris slowly find herself againn through thee five stages of grief absolutelyy shattered mee. seeingg the world lose its colors, onlyy for hope to slowlyy paint it backk piecee by piece... ill neverr forget tahtt feelingg. i dontt know how theyy did it. i dont knoww how watercolor paintinggs becamee a world i neverr wanted to leavee. i donttt knowwww howw a soundtrackk managed to makee myy chest feel soooo fkin heavyy one moment andd soo lightt thee nextt. i dontt knoww howw silence becamee louderr than words. i justttt... i cantt omg. too mcuhh is goingg withh myy emotions rnn. but yeaa i wannaa writee abt itt, soo lastlyy... this gamee dosent ask youu to understand grief... it asks youu to feel it... GRIS isntt beautiful becausee of its art, it isntt beautiful becausee of its music, it isnt beautifull becausee of its gameplayy. GRIS is beautiful becausee every singlee one of those thingss becomes onee heartbeat<33 yk backk when i started playingg this gamee, i thought it would be relaxingg (which it ofcc is, dont get me wrongg). but now that ivee finishedd it, it got mee wonderingg that howw smthh so gentle managedd to completelyy break mee. i dont think i played GRIS. i think i experienced it. and somehoww... i alreadyy miss it.

Я прошёл эту игру на 100% достижений и смог понять двух главных героинь! Да, вы не ослышались! Возможно, звучит как жирный спойлер, но поверьте, мне потребовалось пройти игру 2 раза, чтобы понять весь тот посыл, который заложил в ней автор. Поверьте, вы почувствуете тоже самое, когда поймёте, что эта игра куда ГЛУБЖЕ чем кажется. Лучше понать эту игру помогает не только шикарный визуал, душещипательная музыка и весьма необычный геймплей, но и сами достижения - буквально ключи к раскрытию, не побоюсь этих слов, "ИГРОВОЙ КАРТИНЫ". После игры Typoman это чувствуется куда легче и понятнее. Я уже начинаю задумываться о том, что арт-хаус не только очень чувственный жанр... но и более... понятный? В общем и целом, эта игра - произведение искусства, без исключений! Сложность прохождения: Легко и Приятно Оценка: 10/10

Playable watercolor art. Incredible music and a beautifully stress-free journey. 10/10.

Gris não é apenas um jogo; é um suspiro contido que finalmente encontra espaço para sair. Quando os primeiros acordes do piano ressoam e a protagonista desaba na palma de uma estátua colossal despedaçada, o peso do luto não precisa de uma única linha de diálogo para se fazer entender. A dor é crua, muda e desprovida de qualquer cor. Platinar Gris é como assistir à restauração de um mosaico que parecia irremediavelmente quebrado. O jogo nos lembra com delicadeza que a dor transforma, mas não precisa ser o ponto final; mesmo quando o mundo perde todas as cores, sempre resta um traço de luz esperando para ser redescoberto.

[spoiler] I have never had a psychedelic experience, but I can imagine how the experience might feel like by playing GRIS. I don't say this solely because of the indescribably beautiful set of colors and world-making of the game... which often feels like a peek into the complexity of our inner worlds. I say this mostly because of how there are, supposedly, good and bad trips; especially in psychedelic therapy. The protagonist, as I understand, faces grief of losing her mother and the game is a journey of despair and healing. Every chapter in the game is wonderfully imbued in a specific color and, to me, each feels like a step in battling one's dark thoughts and sunken-ness: brokenness coupled with loneliness, flight coupled with helplessness, and depression coupled with confusion. However, towards the end the protagonist, in her journey, gains her voice which, when sung, marvellously brings life to her surroundings and... maybe, to her own self, as she approaches hope and the joy of commemoration of her mother. Both the good and the bad trips, in the end, result in a reformed self that is able to say goodbye. And, in the process the game magnificently captures the miraculousness of the human experience itself. The protagonist traverses imaginary realities that almost transcend one's self and bring ego-dissolution as you have to be one with your surroundings in solving puzzles that life throws at you in the process.

The fact that this game features hand-drawn watercolors is amazing!

美术惊艳度100% however 三天坐牢四小时仍未通关，血压低了来玩这个【👍】 ———————— 跟着教程过了一遍，终于打出了真结局，集齐全成就。说实话第二遍比第一遍轻松，也更有成就感。。而且作为一个截图模拟小游戏（）在过地图的时候完全不会腻，第二遍依旧被画面神圣感所震撼。 BGM封神。 缺点：游戏性较弱，跑图易红温。 会推荐给所有人玩。

4/5

i love these visual games, so pretty! love the way trees are drawn
