Enjoyable journey!

Cool take on a puzzle adventure. I dig the world design — I thought the colors and textures contributed much to the experience... Same with the sound and music! I enjoyed the challenge of trying to figure out how to navigate the different levels, which required steps that weren’t always clear at times, but it would make it that much more satisfying when you figure it out. The animation of that bird was so sick!!! I’ll probably play it again soon just to that thing move again!


one of the most beautiful games ever

This is a fantastic game! The touch controls, (for all of the playable options) are top notch for a platformer puzzler (on an iPhone XS). While there is no dialogue, the gorgeous art and the super engaging soundtrack tell a very deep story. This type of game is ideal for the completioner (you know who you are,) as there are switches that have to be activated throughout the entire world (and if you get all of them, rumor has it you unlock a secret ending!) It’s also for the casual player as each of the stages are not very long, and the game has a pretty reliable auto save feature. Most platformer style games have challenging elements that most people might find frustrating, but the touch controls are seriously great, (and intuitive). If you’re looking for a game for your iPhone or iPad, I can’t recommend this one enough!


what???

[edited] art and music are amazing, but the lack of tutorial and ever present feeling of not knowing if you’re even going the right way or doing the right thing makes this game anxiety-inducing and almost unplayable due to frustration. the level design is my main complaint, though. some sections of the levels are intuitive, but a lot of it isn’t. i've even gone down a pathway thinking i’ll be able to explore the others in the area only to be taken to the next section, and i'm then unable to go back to collect what i need to. also, thank you, that does help! i just wish it hadn't taken a dev response in order to figure out :/


Most visually stunning game ever!

Love it! Love it! Love it! Love the soundtrack, love the visual art, love the experience, and love the subtle story that follows. Having recently losing my own mom, this game has my heart strings attached. Never been so in love with a game!


WOW. The most beautiful game EVER
Irishbeauty6

This game is amazing on every level. I just finished and was so sad it was over.. no joke! It’s graphics and music are beyond any other game I have enjoyed. It’s truly a work of art. As a social worker, I’m even more impressed at the creators ability to bring Elisabeth Kubler-Ross’s stages of grief to life. What an amazing journey. I think every person owes it to themselves to experience GRIS. I would give 10 stars if I could.. WOW. JUST.WOW.


Gorgeous Game, but Brutal Controls

I wanted to love this game... The graphics are gorgeous, the music is incredible, and altogether there is a wonderful flow to have the game, the character, and the world evolves. However, later in the game when you get to the more complex and intense jumping puzzles, especially when you mix the swimming form and have to grab the birds and then time your first jump just right to release the birds and time the next jump just right and if you don’t.... do-over. That’s what killed it for me. I haven’t finished the game and that’s incredibly disappointing for me, especially considering how gentle and smooth the game is as a whole. I don’t know if this is particular to just iPhone, but the jumping mechanics are just too “flowy” when several parts of the game require pin-point accuracy in order to progress. So, anyone interested in this game, be wary: It is a wonder to behold, but if you don’t have immense skill with platformer jumping mechanics, you will struggle hard in this game.

Absolutely Gorgeous

This game is amazing! It’s definitely my favorite. The visuals combine seamlessly with a wonderful sound that sets the mood as you progress through different levels. I made it through the very end and I was only disappointed that it ended. I want to keep playing. The controls are difficult on a touch screen. I would recommend on an iPad rather than the small screen of the phone. I’d likely play again on a regular game console just to see how the controls differ.

This game is a pleasant experience and isn’t stressful at all. The chillest platformer game ever made.


Great game!!!

I just got this game today and I’m already in love with it! There were parts when I got a little stuck but it wasn’t too difficult to figure out. Then there were times when I would try to jump onto things and I would fall right through and I’d have to try a few times for it to work but other than that it’s a great game!! Also if you get this game just a little hint to use your dress when you are stuck it was the main reason I got stuck.
