Tell Me Why

While the voice acting and the graphics were okay, the story itself was just felt forced. I don't have a problem with the main character being transgendered. It's the fact the keep bringing up the subject without moving forward with the story. I also thought you were playing as Alyson as well? It seems that the game was misleading. I prefer the life is strange series or any tell tell games. Their characters felt more fleshed out.

I loved this game! Does a great job handling a variety of serious issues such as identity, abuse, PTSD. I didn't like one of the main characters in the first chapter but by the end of the game loved them both. Absolutely gorgeous animation too. The pacing is slow, sometimes too slow, and the puzzles aren't the most fun, but in the last chapter I was engaged enough to complete them all! The soundtrack wasn't as good as life is strange, but there were a couple very good songs I discovered! Overall one of my fav gaming experiences of the year. However if you do not like interactive drama games, you will definitely not enjoy.

Just finished all chapters of this story based game and its a beautiful way to tell a story of a broken family confronting their problems with a spiritual power that bonds these two siblings, thought it be a rip off to life is strange but it did hold its own just wish there was more chapters maybe they will announce a sequel to this amazing game

I had some doubts before starting this game. I knew that it touches on some controversial topics. But at the same time games like "Life is strange" are rare, so skip one of the few is not a very thought-out decision.

First of all, to address the transgender topic, I did not find anything super disturbing me personally. But I have to admit it's for sure there, given indirect, it's always hiding in the shadows, in the echoes. The game doesn't try to educate you or poke it into your face.

With that being addressed, I want to share my thoughts on another topic that I find interesting to discuss - fate. I know no matter what you do, we all die in the end. The difference is how you use your time while you are alive. If you do not chase your dreams, you will avoid many troubles. So some people choose safe paths. They learn how their parents live, what to do to succeed in life.

But the story in "Tell me why" showed that while everyone wants their piece of happiness, not everyone gets what they deserve. Once there was a girl, a princess. The girl was happy and her future looked bright and promising. Her parents loved her, and she loved them. But one day the princess had to leave her kingdom. Many years had passed since then, and no one could recognize that little princess anymore. But she kept her secret, the memories about her past, and never forgot about her kingdom.

The thing is - when we think about our future, we are like that little princess with big dreams. But when time does its thing, we get older and slowly forget about that time when we were just kids, and the future looked so promising. The harsh reality is that when next time you see an angry, tired, cashier woman. Look closer, there is a little princess inside. She once was her, and then forgot about that.

"Tell me why" reminded me that people and not some 3rd party forces, but people, are responsible for all the broken castles, for all forgotten princesses...

Great Story, even when chapter one is slow paced, the storytelling is worthwhile to experiment
