Everything is an undefinable game in which we can literally control 'everything' we see. The new product made by David OReilly is an exaltation of senses and freedom, beauty and wonder.

The best way to describe Everything is that it's a game that lets you play as everything. I don't mean that in the sense that you can play as anything, though you can do that (at least, any of roughly 1000 different things coded into the game). Rather, I mean that it's a game that lets you play as a conceptual Everything – that one grand, all-encompassing thing that we are all part of, that binds us together, and that exists within all of us.

Everything wants you to explore the full scope of the universe. A universe that we often forget consists of much more than our own short and small lives.

Everything is, at once, utterly bizarre, brilliantly hilarious and incredibly profound.

I can only hope that "Everything," opens the door for more philosophical games; it is the rare game that may push you to want to lead a better life.

A nice, weird walk and a philosophical lecture, both unfortunately ruined by how hard the game drives its point home. Everything would be cleverer if it wasn't seemingly trying to be so clever.

Everything can't be described as a game, it is a journey made by the mind of David OReilly, a pure experience of about it is the meaning of our life.

As much as I wanted to enjoy Everything, it's an empty experience trying to be deeper than it really is.

A perfect use of the Video Game medium to create an emotional experience, This Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy is a fun, introspective jaunt that provokes and soothes the mind in equal measure.

By throwing out most of Spore's traditional mechanics in favour of a cross between Katamari Damacy and Nested, Everything gets closer to sublimity. And though I don't think it gets all the way there – not for me, not right now – the silliness is constant and delightful.

Funny, philosophical, and deeply, deeply weird, there's nothing else quite like Everything on PC.

Fanciful gameplay meets philosophical discoure - Everything is a small masterpiece in spite of its rocky start.

You're either going to love or hate Everything. It's that type of game as it offers an experience that is pretty out there which is not going to be everyone's cup of tea. Do I recommend the game? Certainly! It is a voyage that has to be experienced. I'm sure that even if you don't end up liking the game, it will still leave its mark on you – you won't be forgetting about this game anytime soon!

Everything is a game that won’t be for everyone. It probably won’t be for most people. At the same time I’d urge everyone to give it a go.

Everything is not an experience for everyone. Considering how trippy and weird the game is, I guess the most enjoyment you are going to have with this game is when playing it with friends while drunk or high.

Everything is a half baked game but you can still play it and enjoy doing it. The game keeps you entertained for a while so you can give it a try. Everything is a good simulator and a bad game.

A solid game, but not for everyone, Everything is all about exploration, curiosity, and looking to what's around the next corner. If you're not worried about scores, the big boss fight, and want a game that you can chill out with while you listen to great music, then Everything is for you.
