Unique and immersive

A unique and immersive game that had me crying in the end, which is a rare and beautiful thing!

Favorite game

I am a huge gamer, I generally play pc games. I was scrolling through Netflix games and then I found this. I thought the concept sounded cool so I got it. This game has changed my entire outlook on life, the story was beautiful and even though the blinks sometimes don’t work you have to remember that is a part of the experience. I recommend this to everyone because anybody with a soul can relate to it and learn from it.

wow.

beautiful game. movies and video games dont really make me cry, but wow. that was beautiful. the only thing i didnt like was the blinking thing but since you dont have to use that its fine

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing this is.

Before your eyes is the saddest game I have ever played and one with the most meaning. From the eye mechanics symbolizing the concept of us not choose how much time we have, no matter how much we wanna stay, to the foreshadowing of what will happen, to the end it is truly a beautiful story. I highly recommend playing this, I am glad I did.

There is an article called “your actual blinking eyes are your best defense against a bad death in Before Your Eyes”, the author describes the beauty of the game better than I could.

What a beautiful game

First, I never and I mean NEVER write reviews for anything. But this.. this game is so beautiful. The music is beautiful the art is beautiful and the way the characters speak is so calming.

I love everything about it. I love it at the end where in the beginning the parents are wondering why the child is smiling and they think he’s happy or he must be somewhere he likes, and it goes with what happens at the end. I love it when his mom talks and you blink between him and the cat guy(sorry I don’t remember his name) it goes with whatever the other person was saying before you blinked. Now I didn’t read the summary; I just saw a clip on tiktok of where him and chole sneak out and chole is telling him about how much she likes to spend time with him.

Did he die when he was young? Is everything above him being sick his story? These questions are probably answered in the summary which I didn’t read, but either way I love this game.

Amazing Game

Truly one of the best most heartfelt games I’ve ever played. A nice twist in the mix made it even better.

Deep Psychological Moments

I absolutely LOVE how this game’s plot went, I felt a variety of emotions, Frustration, Sadness, And even relief. I cried at my ending, no exaggeration. And I think most people can mutually agree that this game had it’s intimidating spots too. I felt really immersed in the story and emotions Benjamin had during playing this, I can’t wait to see what the other endings have in store!

Lovely

this game was absolutely amazing. i never leave reviews but i have to for this one. i will say the eye tracking can glitch a bit but playing it without eye tracking was probably the best. this game moved me to tears im not gonna lie it’s lovely.

It's a nice game but the sound's don't work

The game it's beautiful but the sound doses't work

Beautifully bittersweet story with a wonderful ending!

The concept of the game was so interesting and although the story is quite sad at times, it came together to such a satisfying ending. I loved it and I believe that if you appreciate the story instead of getting caught up in the frustration of not blinking than you will love it, and when inevitably you miss something by accidentally blinking, you can just go back afterwards using the “chapters” option to see. And don’t worry, you don’t actually have to keep your eyes open for long at a time to understand everything. Over all, the imaginative animation, interactive style, and beautiful story came together to make an incredible experience that I wont quickly forget.
