ABZI is a game much like Journey, in both art design (which is unsuprising given who was involved) and in how it feels. If you have played Journey and loved it, ABZU is an easy recommendation, however if you though it was simply okay or didn't enjoy it, ABZU is either not worth it's current price point or simply isn't worth getting.

It is a beautifull game, with stunning art design and music that perfectly compliments the moments it is present in. The controls are solid and the overall experience is amazing. However as suggested above, given it's current price point I would advice people wait for a sale. The game is amazing, but given that simply playing the game as it seems to have been intended I had reached the credits in 85 minutes, which included pausing the game to briefly making a coffee. Those suggest it is significantly longer I can only imagine where padding the time by looking at everything by swimming up close it it and staring at it, which essentially can make any game long.

Put simply, this is a must play experience for anyway who likes atmospheric games and are not bothered by minimal mechanical complexity (I can hardly say there is any present here). It just may be worth waiting for a sale unless you truly feel you have to play it now due to its very small amount of content.
