When the game itself is more important to game developer than the money.

This is short but pure art. An unforgettable experience with brilliant music and extraordinary beauty with smooth and unique gameplay.

This is everything we want from a game company.

Gris is a deeply poignant and emotionally resonant experience, a game that found me at a time when I needed it most. At its core, it tells the story of a heartbroken young woman named Gris, who, having lost her voice, wanders through a desolate, fractured world with no clear sense of direction or purpose. Through this beautifully minimalist world, Gris slowly learns new abilities, overcoming obstacles and, ultimately, finding her purpose.

What struck me most about this game is how it uses its art and gameplay to explore the profound themes of grief and loss. The game's transition from a muted, colourless environment to one filled with vibrant hues mirrors Gris’s emotional journey. Each new colour she discovers reflects a step forward in her healing, a reminder that even in the most colourless of worlds, there is potential for renewal and hope.

This metaphor for grief, coping, and emotional growth is realised so subtly and gracefully. As Gris progresses through the levels, I found myself reflecting on my own experiences with grief, realising how life often feels like a struggle through barren landscapes before we can begin to find the light. The game’s pace is meditative, allowing you to truly immerse yourself in the process of discovery and emotional processing.

The animation is exceptional. Every frame of the game feels like a work of art, with the smooth transitions and fluid movements of the character adding to the emotional depth of the experience. The artistry is not just for show; it serves to deepen the narrative, making each visual element meaningful. The design of the levels themselves acts as a canvas, displaying some of the most stunning and evocative visuals I’ve encountered in a game.

Gris is not just a game; it is an emotional journey that resonates on a deeply personal level. It helped me navigate my own grief, offering a silent yet profound form of solace, reminding me that emotions are to be embraced, and that healing can come in the most unexpected forms. This is a game that is as much about the journey within as it is about the exploration of its world.
