Kinda out-there. It is more like a concept game and not like a full game. I guess I was entertained enough to give it a thumps up. Easy to get all the achievements.

It's a walk in a forest for about 30min followed by a few min more through a cave with a background voice telling you, only from time to time, what to do and supported by some relaxing music. Has probably neither ambition nor pretention to be more than this. Simply a demo-like prologue to something else. Would never have heard about it before receiving a discount coupon; is Steam feeling guilty for not advertising this kind of products as much as they do for the more expensive ones (with their lucrative 30% cut) ? Having then paid 0.3euros for it here, i can not question the value for money.

A nice prequel to the first game. Its mostly the same but still very nice. The collis are harder to find this time but not too hard. Its pretty short and pretty nice. I can really recommend this game

'Nephise Begins' is a delightful, atmospheric game that tells the story of Nephise before she became an orb collector. The game features narration, a HUD, stunning landscapes, and various collectibles (mushrooms, letters, animal skulls). It also includes 5 Steam achievements and 3 in-game trading cards (out of 5 available for the badge). I completed the game in around 20 minutes, collecting all the collectibles and unlocking all the achievements in a single sitting. While the game has only one ending and lacks a save feature, its straightforward design and instructions make it accessible to players of all skill levels. The difficulty is very low, which I would rate as 1/10. From the start, 'Nephise Begins' impresses with its beautiful foggy landscapes and rolling hills. The atmosphere is the game’s standout feature, enhanced by soothing music and an elder narrator who guides the story. Players will collect animal skulls and place them on amphoras, with the puzzles being simple yet satisfying. The HUD helps track your progress, showing how many skulls and mushrooms you’ve collected. Despite being short and relatively easy, the game provides an enjoyable and relaxing experience. For those seeking more complex gameplay or longer playtime, 'Nephise Begins' might feel a bit light, as it is primarily designed for players who appreciate mood and ambiance over challenge. At its current price of €0.99, I find the game reasonably priced, but given its short length, I’d recommend waiting for a sale. In conclusion, 'Nephise Begins' is perfect for those who enjoy atmospheric games and want a brief, calming experience. It may not be for everyone, but it excels at delivering a peaceful, mood-driven environment.
