Gris is a phenomenal game, and perhaps even a defining piece in the "Emotional Exploration" and/or Eudaimonic gaming genres. The visual art style is highly evocative, and, paired with the soundscape of the game, invites the player into an examination of self, even as they play.

I played through this game twice before going back a third time to complete all the Steam achievements, and I can say with confidence that each play-through offered me a new experience and a new appreciation for the game due to the changes that had occurred within me between each run. It is largely a serene, almost meditative, gaming experience occasionally punctuated by moments of tension that are married beautifully to the emotional development of the main character.

All-in-all, Gris is a story of healing. In this case, healing from grief, and it travels through the complex stages of that process very well. Personally, I think this game has the potential to even help in one's own healing process, and may be translatable into healing from more than just the loss of a loved one.

20/10 Would recommend. This game reminds us that there is beauty in all things, and that a well-made game is a work of art.
