‘Season: A letter to the future’ tasks you to scrapbook and bike your way through a beautiful world in the face of impending cataclysm, our critic writes.
Nods to Hayao Miyazaki's painterly style, along with beautiful scoring and sound design, bring the game's environment to life. You'll spend the majority of your time pedaling around a single valley as a sort of end-times diarist, equipped with an instant camera and tape recorder. These accessories beg you to slow down and tune in to your surroundings — and you'll want to, because atmosphere and pacing are where this game shines.
Frustratingly, then, for a game that packs in some character depth and excellent writing, it's the sum of the story that falls flat. Ostensibly this is a hero's journey, but the arc here is more informative than transformative. You reach your journey's end largely unchanged, your expectations never really challenged along the way . And that's perhaps what best sums up what you won't find in this otherwise charming game — a challenge.
