Over the past couple of weeks, I have played three puzzle games. Each one has been a unique and engaging experience. The most recent of these, Arrog, comes courtesy of a small studio out of Peru. The team crafted a small but impactful experience and I am hoping that more players will embrace it as I have.
Arrog Review ? Follow the Stars
The black and white art direction that Hermanos Magia went with for Arrog is what initially caught my eye. These seemingly simple scenes do not have any sorts of voice over or accompanying text, allowing the player to immerse themselves into the world. This made everything that much more impactful for a game about death. Struggling through the rain, alone, following a star along its path made my heart hurt. When I encountered a community gathered to celebrate my life, that sorrow turned to joy and brought color into the world. That?s how I want my friends and family to honour me when I am gone, not with sadness but hopeful and remembering happier times. For a game you can finish in half an hour, it does an amazing job evoking feels you may not expect from a puzzler.
