FREE TO PLAY graphic adventure, very short and very entertaining. With a murky atmosphere and about family drama. It is very enjoyable, easy to play, well set, with short but sharp dialogues. With simple but curious puzzles and very well integrated into the story. Its resemblance with The Cat Lady is evident. A game where the horror is not supernatural but the nightmares come true. You want to see the end.

Aventura gráfica FREE TO PLAY, muy cortita y muy entretenida. De ambiente turbio y drama familiar. Se hace muy amena, es fácil de jugar, bien ambientada, con diálogos breves pero punzantes. Puzzles sencillos pero curiosos y muy bien integrados en la historia. Su parecido con The Cat Lady es evidente. Un juego donde el terror no es sobrenatural pero las pesadillas se hacen realidad. Quieres ver el final.

Short and sad. I like the sound effects, music, and art style. This made me think about how I'd like to make my own point-and-click game someday.

decent little free puzzlah

I suppose it's a free game, but it's very short and very depressing. If you want a quick story with very few, quite simple puzzles, go ahead and give it a try. But I'm not sure it's worth the time.

A short point and click that tells the sad story of a woman and her family issues.

Pros
+ Sad compelling story

The Kite is a short point & click game that tells the sad story of a woman and her family issues, doing her best to protect her only child.

It is a simple game that moves in a slow pace with easy puzzles, it is mainly trying to tell you the depressing story of Mary and how she struggles for her son Andrew.

It has a nice visual style that's drab and depressing, complementing the story it is telling you. This does however sometimes interferes with the gameplay as the coloring makes it harder to spot items you need to progress.

There is a remake / remaster with updated graphics and new additions to the game. Though they have also changed the whole color scheme, personally it has changed the whole feel of the game for me.

sad story

sad, good, amazing style.

An ok point a click story. It is very short, but since its free...

This is a short Point & Click story. Should only take 45 minutes to an hour, depending on your pace. It involves very tedious running back & forth, collecting items to do nonsensical tasks with.

Step by step, there is over 40 things to do to get to the end of the story, and you will not get past the first 3 or 4 steps on your own. You will need to follow the guide to complete the rest of the steps. That's not a game. That's busy work, which is a waste of time.

You play as the wife of an alcoholic who beats you. Your young son goes missing, and you have to find him on your own because your husband is too busy watching TV to help you.

Also, the game starts out in Russian, and you have to figure out how to change it to English.
