Old Mans Journey Gameplay and Review on YouTube
Old Man’s Journey has you pointing and clicking around a beautifully illustrated and animated, layered environment as you help an old man overcome hurdles. The hurdles themselves come in the form of land which you can move up and down in order to allow smooth travel.
Along the way you will learn about the old man’s life, love, sacrifices and adventures. The story told is a very touching one, but some of the puzzling areas you come across can leave you feeling a bit frustrated and not in the right state of mind to appreciate the beautifully drawn memories of the old man.
Old Man’s Journey is a very short adventure to play through, but it is definitely rewarding. However, I couldn’t get over the fact the frustration felt with some areas interrupted my enjoyment of the emotional story.
