The Sojourn aims to capture big themes in this first-person puzzler. Created by London developer Shifting Tides, this beauteous art piece follows the life journey of a young boy as vignettes of blindfolded statues tell his tale between puzzle stages. While the colourful, unfolding levels and harp-plucking soundtrack invoke a sense of calmness, the heavy-handed moralising of the game’s writing pulls the player away from its peaceful atmosphere. Overlong and overwrought, the bright sparks of creativity within The Sojourn are dimmed by its missteps.
Pretty music, pretty colors, puzzles, puzzles, puzzles. The Deluxe version arrives on Steam today.
