IrrationalPassions: Firewatch Review

"Few things have left me lying awake in my bed. The night I finished Firewatch, clutching the controller through to three o’clock in the morning, I climbed into bed, exhausted, hoping to get a decent night’s sleep before needing to wake up early in the morning. Then I didn’t. Instead I stared at the ceiling of my room, pondering and lost in the amalgamation of feelings Firewatch left with me. It’s both beautiful and poignant, and much like the first person adventure games that have come before it (see: Gone Home) it gives you an experience that may stick with you forever. From its opening moments to it’s final seconds, Firewatch steps up what we see as storytelling in video games."
