Overall, Gloomy Eyes was a treasure of a game. It had a great story, amazing aesthetics, and a great soundtrack. It was a little short, and I feel like it could have been expanded a bit at the end to make the last cutscene a little less abrupt, but overall, the story and characters were amazing. If you like spooky Tim Burton kids’ movies like Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline, and you even thought, “Hey these could make a fun game,” you should check out Gloomy Eyes for sure.

Who would have thought that a little co-op puzzle platformer that I demo’ed at a gaming convention would truly deliver such a powerful punch in such a small package! Gloomy Eyes was a complete joy to experience and left me wanting to see more of this tiny little macabre world. If you like the concept of a spooky (yet cozy) solo-player co-op game, you owe it to yourself to add Gloomy Eyes to your game library.
