a charming little game. i got through it in about 40 minutes during my first playthrough - the puzzles are decently simple once the mechanics have been explained, although i did find myself flailing a bit during a few sequences (i'd forgotten something we'd done early on in the game, and once i figured it out i felt a little silly haha). i loved the art direction - it's a little reminiscent of stopmotion, the way the characters are built, and the environments are gorgeous. i especially loved the glitchy masked memories of our friends and family - gave me shivers down my spine every time. the story made me cry, which is not difficult to do, per se, as i am a Known Crier, but i think it could make just about anyone cry, really. a touching story about love, and loss, and the processing thereof. if only processing in real life were so simple. 10/10, would recommend.

Blackwood Crossing is a very nice narrative-driven game about two siblings. You play as the older sister Scarlett and navigate through different environments to keep an eye on your younger brother Finn. The gameplay includes finding hidden items, problem solving, matching dialog between characters, and more. I appreciated Blackwood Crossing for its surreal settings and its interesting plot. I LOVED seeing all the different masks and other creative touches in the environments (nearly everything has a story). The game offers a bittersweet experience and I think that if you like games like What Remains of Edith Finch you will really enjoy Blackwood Crossing. Overall I would recommend this game. Give it a try! Find some bunnies and posters.

I enjoyed it, but veterans of this genre may find it lacking. The game is visually attractive and the voice acting is very good (and it's refreshing to hear a British cast.) The mechanics are a bit clunky, though, and the whole experience is rather short. Another factor that killed it a bit is that Finn is such a little beast. This is understandable; the game is a tragic portrayal of the very difficult circumstances some children find themselves in, and the consequences. However, since all the objectives consist of trying to please Finn, the effort feels unrewarding when he's so ungrateful. Perhaps the plot should have focused more on the mystery aspects rather than playing Finn Says for 2 hours. The ending is also obvious from the very beginning. The only mystery was trying to work out whether it was one or both of them!
