  What you’re getting here is a wonderful piece of storytelling that is enhanced by a very strong audiovisual presentation. In turn, the gameplay takes a bit of a backseat because of how little challenge it poses. We could have done with more subtlety when it comes to the game’s handling of metaphors, but the overarching and wholesome story left us feeling cozy. This is a title that deserves your attention just for that, even if it’s definitely not the most engaging puzzle game out there.

  The game is short, even if players choose to go with the New Game+ option and explore all four realms to get the full ending. Despite the good vibes and pleasant presentation, many players will be disappointed with the lack of variety. Hello Goodboy is a good example of a feel-good experience, although one that is probably best played by or in the company of a younger gamer.
