Pros
-----
+Amazing management game. Focusses on keeping your land boat runnig.
+Excellent puzzles. Nothing crazy hard, but nothing too easy. Keeps you thinking.
+Excellent difficulty advancement. Teaches you basic mechanics early and slowly builds on them.
+$15
+AMAZING Music. Can't stress how atmospheric and wonderful this experience is.
+Beautiful art style. Whole thing looks stunning, and the use of background, foreground, and camera zoom tells a wonderful story.
+Decent story. Not a lot too it, but the delivery is excellent and moving.
Cons
-----
-Only 2 hours long.
-Protaganist could use more depth. We learn very little about them, and their motivations. This would have helped the ending feel a bit more fulfilling.
-Not a lot of replay value. Puzzles are easy enough that unlike similar games (take Braid for example) if I come back a year from now the experience won't be anywhere near as good as the first time.
Summary
----------
For $15 USD (the price of a movie ticket) spend the same amount of time in an experience that is more enjoyable than most movies, and support an indy Dev so that they can make more wonderful games like this.
>No dogs. No girlfriend. Just a handyman and his earth-roamer.
>No guns. No bad guys. Just mother nature with her storms and blizzards.
>No dialogues. No tutorials. Just clever setups that explain themselves.
>No dazzling visuals. No epic tales. Just a simple, nice-looking game that deserves a positive review.
단점:8분이면 끝나는 짧은 플레이타임을 가지고 있다.
장점:그 8분이 개쩐다
그래도 무한모드같은거 업데이트 해줬음 좋겟다
>게임속 세상이 멸망한 이유는 아마 연료효율이 개 양신이라서그런거같음

Probably not the game's intention, but it kept me sane during a very dark time in my life. Somehow, this game was exactly what I needed. Really well made

Whilst playing the game my partner started watching me play.
Partner: That looks really nice, but where is everyone?
Me: I don't know
Partner: But what is the story?
Me: I don't know
Partner: What are you trying to do?
Me: I don't know
Partner: Where are you going?
Me: I don't know
Partner: Well it looks really nice
Me: I know

Beautiful little game. I love how tactile and mechanical it feels. No UI, no tutorials, very little language at all, but heaps of revelations and emotions packed into 2-3 hours. Often makes me feel smart and adventurous.
I love the visuals, the music, and the light storytelling. The final shot is one of the most gorgeous things I've ever seen in a game. Surprisingly lovely on Steam Deck for how small everything is — just be sure to zoom in with L2. Highly recommended.

This game isn't my thing. I'm not really into side scrollers, steam punk, or puzzles. I lean toward open world, base building or strategy games. But the ratings were for this game were awesome and I got it on sale for $2!!
Yeah, I finished it in four hours. It isn't long. But the graphics are crisp and smooth, the art styles is beautiful, the music is well themed and the entire game was very immersive. You can see the love that went into this game.
I'll replay it. I'll recommend it. Even for old grognards. This was fun. Well done.

You'll probably get six hours of playtime out of this game, but if it isn't some of the best six hours of gameplay you'll find, then I'll eat my hat. Is it "Red Dead Redemption" in RDR2 levels of "holy cow, this hit me in the feels"? No. Not by a long shot. But this game is.... something else. It's a glimpse of something unique among the crowds of over-crowded, crazy-coloured FPSs and other new garbage. The game devs clearly had a vision, and if you ask me, they nailed it. The colour pallate, the simple/intuitive controls, the lack of a defined story but the structure, the framework, the scaffolding for one's imagination to follow the game.... it's amazing.
It could also run on a microwave. Or maybe a typewrite. So that's nice too.

Great game, but very short - just about 5 hours. Checked next new Lone Sails game -- it uses denuvo, I boycott games with crappy malware called denuvo.
