About
Mango is a surrealist first-person adventure/puzzle game about art and derealization, featuring
* trippy, psychedelic visuals
* intense psychological and philosophical undertones
* fragmented, lore-rich storytelling
* experimental horror elements
* and last but not least, an overarching feeling of NEVER knowing what to expect.
It explores the idea of a mind losing its grasp with reality, as reality turns into a dream, and that dream turns into a nightmare. It has an off-kilter tone that can shift from overly chill to downright scary. Often it resembles an acid trip, or an interactive fever dream.
The game contains ~8 hours of gameplay with lots of freaky action, even more freaky fashion, deconstructed urban landscapes and/or dreamscapes, existential angst, questionable parenting, a bit of driving, and a fair load of straight-up madness.
It has been described as simultaneously dadaist and hyper-realist in nature, both alien and also deeply human, as well as the story of a life, filtered through the eyes of the mind.
Also, it has been described as WEIRD as hell ;)

This first-person exploration title is one hell of a ride! It seems as though it aims to disorient, but through the noise, there is a pervasive visual beauty. It is an ODYSSEY, too; it's a lot lengthier than most games of this type. What's actually going on is a bit incomprehensible, and less in an "open to interpretation" way than in a "goes back and forth" kind of way, but I'm here for the journey, so that wasn't a dealbreaker for me. There were a few parts that were a little frustrating in terms of gameplay or figuring out what to do (the latter could absolutely be a me problem), but overall, I loved this, and would highly recommend it if you're into this sort of thing.
Very unique game with super trippy visuals. Puzzles are fun. Great atmosphere.
I'm reasonably certain this is the weirdest walking simulator you will play today.
This game is what really got me into the weird and bizarre games with psychedelic graphics and gameplay. I absolutely adore this game and haven't even finished it. I've been following the developers and really enjoy all they put out, even as someone who doesn't normally play these types of games. The puzzles are a little challenging at times, but super fun and I love the lore that the game gradually feeds to you as you play.

i was itching for another surreal dream walking sim and ♥♥♥♥, this scratched it. It's overall just beautiful and the bright garish elements appeal to me like crazy. The narrator is unreliable which lends to the dream and nightmare like logic of the story. I'm prone to finishing games like this in one sitting but was really pleased with how long it took without ever feeling like it was dragging on. I liked the puzzles overall, though some later are a little frustrating, but it's easy to find help for them. I'd give it an 8.5/10, not perfect but really, really good if you're also craving something weird, unsettling and beautiful.
I'm really surprised that I hadn't reviewed this. I really liked the game the art is great the music is nice and the story is interesting. There's once or twice where I got confused on where to go and was just wandering around but that's also part of it. This game definitely put me on to artsy walking sim games.

not stimulating enough, well i know its supposed to be a really laid back walking simulator but its not interesting in general.
The video game equivalent of an art house film. The enjoyment stems from walking around experiencing crazy weird environments and never knowing what the game will throw at you next.
