This is a charming little interactive story that warms the heart even if it doesn't necessarily challenge the brain. If you like your games to be story driven with characters you'll end up caring about, this is a must-have.

The project, deeply reminiscent of INSIDE, unexpectedly gets to a certain extent and the promise of the 1979 Revolution: Black Friday - in a grotesque manner. And from a slightly awkward, but not so bad clone turns... well, let not in a beautiful swan with a strong personality, but the project with its own voice.

The Lion's Song is a great point-and-click game that focuses mostly on the narrative.  The choices you make in one chapter can not only impact the other chapters (both later and earlier chapters), but seeing all of these choices have connections to each other in the Gallery is a nice touch.  With its unique art-style and use of music throughout the game, The Lion's Song was a great experience.

The Lion's Song is an excellent point-and-click adventure game for those who enjoy narrative. It's not about fetching items or solving inventory puzzles in 20th-century Austria. Instead, it transports you back to a time fairly different from ours — but less so than you might think. The characters still experience anxiety and self-doubt, they search for the truth about themselves, they make certain compromises or changes to get what they want.

with the end of its season, The Lion's Song shows how mature stories can be, and even with its events happening almost 100 years ago, the problems faced here are still present in modern society.

A thrilling story, very cool visual design and believeable dialogue. The Lion's Song is a highly entertaining piece of art.
