Neversong is nearly the perfect game for the genre. Aside from the few issues that I mentioned, and few they are, it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with side-scrolling puzzle game mechanics. The story is dark, beautiful, and haunting in a way that only a few games have been able to capture before. If you’re thinking of the next title to pick up and scratch that psychological narrative itch, Neversong is the clear choice.
Much like its unnamed protagonist, Stela carries the torch of cinematic platformers and delivers a unique and compelling experience. If you’re a fan of the genre, or just want to look at a beautiful game for a couple of hours, then this is a must-play. I found myself saying, “I’ll stop at the next area,” over and over again, while subsequently not being able to due to the amazing visuals and intriguing evolution of the game.
