I was playing this game, as my dad called me to tell that he was ready to pick me up and go out for some dinner. Later he asked, if I'd just woken up from sleep when he called. I answered (a little confused), "No, I was just playing a computer game", realising how much I emotionally got absorbed by this game.

When I bought the game I did know that it was able dig up feelings in me ( - because I literally cried simply from watching the appetiser video). I have never before encountered a game that was capable of doing that to me.

While playing, tears showed up in my eyes multiple times. Afterwards I would be moody - and sound sleepy over the phone. There is no doubt that I was moved by GRIS. I enjoyed playing it a lot and it's, simply put, a beautiful peace of art. But to experience it like I did, I think you have to be able to get into a certain mindset. The sound, music and visuals should get you a long way. But as depressing as it sounds, you might need to be just a little broken-hearted beforehand.
