GAME

There is no other like this. I am not talking about the dusty jokes, or the memes overflowing. I'm talking about the game that it is. It seemlessly incorporates multiple elements I would never have imagined together in one game, along with an absolutely beautiful story that left me shaking. And not to mention, of all games that have boasted 'choices' this one actually goes through with it, showing you the impact of what you decided to do every 5 minutes, carrying from the very first choice all the way to the absolutely very last thing you do even impacting your next play throughs. This game is expertly crafted and I don't do multiple playthrough games, since usually the playthroughs are the same until the end. I am thoroughly excited to squeeze as much content as I can out of this game

This is not a game. It's a story. This is a real life story of two people. One who may be "standard" by your ideas, and the other who may be "depressed". I'm not sure what it would be for the second, but many would not consider them "standard".

Do not play this to look for a game. This is a message, from one person to another. I would rate it a full 5/5 for being true, real, not fantasy and not an escape from our real lives. But because of something mentioned towards the end I rate it 4/5. What you did will likely not help, but I applaud you for striving for something, and that is the best I think any of us can do. This is not a game, its a story and a message. The only reason you should play this is to learn the struggles everyone can face, or to help pass on the message. You nasty learn something about yourself. But do not play this looking for a game. Please don't

It's fun

It's interesting

You become curious about what's happening. You don't understand it. You don't know why. But like everyone says, it is yours. And that makes it special

Now please, add a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way to exit the game without having to Alt+F4, or leave fullscreen. I use a controller often and like this being ran in fullscreen. Thank you

This sums up everything

Aquaria is one of those games that is "the best game you've ever touched" Its insanely beautiful, with amazing art and an uncomparable soundtrack. It also will probably take days or even weeks to complete with the side content included, a quality you don't find in many modern games, which can be measured by hours, The side content is also more than just thrown in for extra reality to it, it creates more of the story, even though its optional it can extend the story by almost twice as long, increases the gameplay by so much more, and is just amazing. This game is done perfectly in every way, is one of the best I've ever seen, and is simply perfect. Buy this game if you have not. You won't regret it, I swear
