The game overflows with warmth and delicacy, but also nostalgia and reflection. Through something that may seem very simple, it raises deep questions that can be approached from multiple points of view. With great mastery, Behind The Frame combines sublime art, a perfect soundtrack, pleasant mechanics, fun puzzles, and delivers powerful reflections and emotions. Moreover, the work isn’t rigid or finite — it allows the player to try to predict what is happening and leaves room for interpretation. All of that in under two hours of gameplay. It may be that the game affected me a little more deeply, both because of my admiration for Ghibli and my recent passion for painting, as well as the stage of life questioning I’m currently going through. Still, I truly believe that even if it doesn’t provoke the same feelings in everyone, it is a genuine work of art. And mind you, until now I had never liked the point-and-click genre. I highly recommend it — even if you wait for a sale. It’s a warm hug for the heart.
