Changed my life

this game made me cry, made me happy and made cry more.it’s so amazing and touching, the way you uncover everything- it’s read so smoothly and it’s written so beautifully. It felt like I was in the story with them. I can’t express how much this has changed my perspective on things in life. It’s incredible. It just keeps unraveling in every step of the way, I played it non stop. I hope others get to experience the joy of playing this game, it’s so relatable to me, and that’s what has made it change my life too, it’s so comforting. Please buy this game, 10/10

Shallow and boring

"If found" was nominated for "games for impact" award this year so I was intrigued. Unfortunatelly at it's core it appeared to be just a generic teenage drama. Transgender theme was for advertisement only and never explored below surface level. You can swap the main character with any cis-gendered teenage girl or boy and the story would make the same amount of sense.Gameplay mechanics of erasing words was interesting for 5 minutes, but then got boring. It could have had real significance like healing character traumas or branching the story. Instead it's just a realy tedios way to move forward in a linear fashion.Finally a few words about art: visually "If found" is just a collection of doodles. It's not in the same league as Gris and is rather forgettable. The same case being with music and sound effects.

Made my heart full (and my tear ducts)

A really wholesome stylish gay lil 2 hour narrative game from an Irish team. If anyone’s played Florence, it reminded me a lot of that.The gameplay is pretty much just interacting with the art and narrative using the touch screen of your phone, and the story was really lovely albeit a bit too heavy at times. Bittersweet relationships with home, connecting with all the other gay little misfits, and finding freedom in queerness. It all hit close to home and I cried like a bebé. Anywho its really pretty game and if you ever wanna emotionally wring yourself out like a sponge I’d definitely recommend it.

A touching story, beautifully executed

This is a lovely story unfolding through a unique mechanism of gradually erasing a diary, in which many passages had been crossed out. It conveys the difficult cross-currents experienced by a young trans woman coming to terms with family and childhood friends in a touching and relatable manner. In one respect, the process of erasure seems like a letting-go of the past, making way for what will come - and indeed it’s the only way you can progress with the story. Well done!
