It really is a very charming game. The pseudo, non-specific, “greatest hits” of tribal religion mixed with the art style and minimal story really gives the game a unique identity. While there may be some problems with the difficulty, and the payoff of the short story mode is slightly underwhelming, From Dust definitely brings something fairly original to the table that really has its moments.

The pleasing puzzles present unexpected challenges, and even when they’re over it’s still fun to just toy around with. It leaves me hoping that Chahi and his team continue to build on the foundation laid here, so we can explore deeper and more complex levels in this living sandbox.
