The Old Man’s Journey is a tender, illustrative adventure that often feels more like an interactive folk tale than a puzzle game.

Play Anywhere is a great feature but it shouldn't be the headline thesis of the game itself? Is it any good? Have you guys played it? Do you recommend it? This just sounds like an advertisement.
This is more like it:

Well...news can be in the form of a lot of different approaches I guess. Take a look at all the sales articles or opinion articles we see on this site alone...i took this story as simply announcing that a game is hitting a certain platform...the same way you will see stories saying that "Days Gone hits shelves for PS4" soon enough. The "is it any good" is not really what the article is trying to ask...it isn't asking anything in that case...just being informative to those that might want to know.
This article comes from XboxHub.com...clearly, it's a website that speaks to gamers within Microsoft's ecosystem...gamers that might be looking for titles they can play on both PC and console. It's not a review, nor meant to be one.

Was it a puzzle platformer in which I venture across fantastical landscapes as I seek out the unknown? Well, it turns out to be a combination of the two, almost. Broken Rules have delivered a dialogue-free experience which tells a profound, interesting and heartbreaking story of regret, loss and of reconnecting with your lost family, all whilst providing you with a clever puzzle-like experience. Be aware though, the game, even though it’s speechless, has its emotional parts.
