Empathy: Path of Whispers Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Overall a decent game with an enjoyable soundtrack and impressive visuals
Empathy: Path of Whispers is a first-person adventure game that places you in the midst of a dreamscape, a dying world populated only by memories. The atmosphere is haunting, the world itself is eerie and the stories are complex. Yet, there are problems abound that keep it from really coming together the way you know it could.
Empathy: Path of Whispers is a little adventure game created by Pixel Night. It shows great promise as it takes you across several different vistas as you uncover the mystery of where everyone went and what happened to them. Unfortunately, this potential is never realized as the game is plagued with boring gameplay and game breaking bugs.
Pixel Night makes a brave foray into the exploration genre that doesn't quite pan out in the end due to detached storytelling and repetitive mechanics. If you're a dedicated adventure game player, Empathy: Path of Whispers will offer little challenge, except maybe in the way of overcoming boredom. It is, at the end of the day, a walking simulator that knows exactly what it wants to be, but falls a few steps short of actually being it.
Empathy: Path of Whispers is a walking simulator with a fascinating world that doesn't quite unravel the way you'll want it to.
