Critic reviews
- Metro.co.uk9.0GameCentral catches up on an award winning indie game from last year, which has now been released on Nintendo Switch 2 and mobile phones.
- Siliconera9.0and Roger is a poignant and meaningful adventure, and the Switch 2 version feels like the strongest console release.
- Game Informer8.5And Roger left me feeling a whirlwind of emotions, from distressed to sympathetic to hopeful, using little more than a mouse cursor. The best compliment I can give is that it reminds me so much of 2018’s Florence, a game I adore, in how it uses clever interactions to communicate relatable feelings and situations. While I wouldn’t wish the plight of its protagonist on my worst enemy, I would happily recommend this experience as another strong example of video games' strength as a storytelling medium.
- Nintenderos9.0Llega a Nintendo Switch la nueva propuesta de TearyHand Studio llega en forma de novela interactiva con mecánicas muy simples, pero con una intención clarísima: hacerte sentir.
- 3D Juegos8.5Una experiencia valiente y necesaria, pero dura como pocas
