- 6.5 Dear Me I Was is available now on Switch 2. Reviewed on Switch 2.
- 6.0Dear Me, I Was looks absolutely stunning, with every screen of the game feeling like a work of art in its own right. But taking less than an hour to complete, the story here lacks substance, and being told entirely through visuals makes it more difficult to connect with.
- 7.2Dear Me, I Was...is touching but short. It's beautiful but not finished. It's worth doing, but don't be surprised if you forget about it right after it's over.
- Dear Me, I Was is one of the most beautiful games I’ve ever had the privilege of playing. Here's our review.
- 6.0Dear Me, I Was offers reflection on a life accompanied by eye-catching art and gentle piano music. There's very limited interactivity though, and while the story is relatable at some points, it's not particularly unique.
