why even play this game? you may as well stare at a sunlit wall and watch the shadows shift as you hold a stick in your hands like its a controller. but why even do that? why even get out of bed when youll just have to sleep again? why eat,if you just have to eat again? why do anything? there is no point. there is no meaning, no victory or rewards screen, so why even try? life is meaningless and has no purpose. life only exists in the living. and living is a small thing, repeated endlessly. as small as a single step. thats what this game is about: taking a single meaningless step and calling it living. play this not because its a game but because its the least you can do. its like breathing: what could be more boring, and more missed once its gone? the repetetive ache of being and forgetting. you wont remember this game--it whispers as you go--but you dont need to: you simply need to play it.

More of a hold A or D and sometimes press space simulator and an intractable album than a game. but dear god it's a really stellar intractable album

My vote is between yes and no. "Yes" if you are into original songs will little to no gameplay, which is meant to be experienced in one sitting. "No" if you're looking for something more interactive - this however picks up towards the end, and the controls are very simple. Nice songs that fits the overall storyline, the 8-bit look and the landscape scenes were pretty. there is some autosave function in some chapters. my only gripe is that the characters move slow, which i guess is meant to be that way so that the storyline depicts the realistic movement of life and through different stages, and the songs can be enjoyed in its entirety. had fun acting out as the kid and doing the endless naruto run 😂

The Longest Road on Earth isn't really a game, but it is definitely an experience. The narrative is up to interpretation, but it covers themes of going to work and growing up, which anyone can relate to. The black and white pixel art properly fits the idea of playing the game as looking back into history. And the soundtrack? Holy cow, Beícoli did an amazing job! The soundtrack, without question, makes this game beautifully unique.

Walking simulator meets the flaubertian idea of a novel about nothing (which by the way he never managed ou actually tried to pull of). Literally nothing happens, the most significant actions you take are waiting for the right time to cross the street ou looking at your on shoes for as long as a song lasts (I guess its nicer if the soudtrack is to your liking, its not particularly my style, though it isn't bad). I like the ideia that such a game exists (don't know if its the 1st time someone tried something like this), as I am also a fan of Flaubert and of the ideia of a novel about nothing. But honestly I just found it boring. Update: I'm updating this review about a week after having played and written it, considering only that the game kind stuck with me and gave me oportunity to think a lot - not particularly about life in general as seems to be the case of many positive reviews here (honestly I believe I already give that a lot of thinking, specially in critical moments of life) - but about games, how they tell delicate stories, and about stories without a plot, with twists and turns, adventures etc. Think I just came to be glad that this game exists and that I have played it, a little like a De Sica movie or the Tree of life, by Terrence Malick.
