“minimalist style and atmosphere creates curiosity and wrongness” (200)
Simples, curto e marcante Inside é aquele tipo de jogo perfeito para uma tarde. Curto, direto ao ponto, mas com um impacto muito maior do que sua duração pode sugerir. Desde o início, ele chama atenção pelo seu estilo minimalista. Pouco é explicado, quase nada é dito, mas tudo ali desperta curiosidade. Você começa sem entender exatamente o que está acontecendo, mas sente que há algo errado naquele mundo. E isso é o suficiente para te prender. Os desafios são simples, mas bem construídos. Nada parece exagerado ou desnecessário. Cada puzzle serve como parte da progressão, mas também como ferrame
