An island that does not speak, does not hold your hand, and leaves you alone facing its mute mechanisms.

No gut ranking here, so let us read the profile criterion by criterion, keeping in mind the votes are still scarce. Two lines stand out clearly: the feel of the controller, ahead of nearly 80% of games, and above all the sound atmosphere, ahead of more than 80% of titles. Early votes suggest a game you listen to as much as you watch. Attachment holds the upper-middle, on a few more duels, so a touch more solid. Meanwhile desert island, fun and art direction stay in the lower third, to be confirmed. A 1997 classic getting passed on looks by today's standards, without its real depth being at fault.

In the point-and-click and puzzle family, it is a slow, contemplative monument, the opposite of an instant thrill.

So who is it for? You, if you love getting lost in a silent world, a soundtrack that lingers, puzzles you have to earn. Much less if you want twitchy fun and an art style that pops right away.
