Bonbon is a short, first-person domestic horror narrative in which you play through the childs eyes, I don't even think I should call it a game, it's more like a short story, it's probably gonna take you around 20 minutes to finish it. Although I hated the gameplay, when I finished the game and started thinking about it, it gave me some insight, it's one of those games where you try to figure out the ending for yourself. So, you play as a little kid, and for the first 15 minutes you just put away your toys, but that creepy looking rat is always there watching you, and I guess helping you?
So, because I can't really type anything about the story because I don't wanna spoil it, let's just jump in to the scores.
STORY
RATING: 9/10
As I said, it's confusing, but it the end (and if you watch and listen to the details) it all (kinda) makes sense. The game really made me think about the ending and I always appreciate when games do that.
VISUAL PRESENTATION
RATING: 8/10
Bonbon is beautiful, not AAA beautiful but Indie beautiful, really like the visuals.
AUDIO PRESENTATION
RATING 5/10
Voice acting is weird, but I didn't expect much from the begginning, atmosphere is ... meh.
FINAL SCORE: 7/10
A good little horror game that's really cheap, I don't think you're gonna want to replay it but still, if you're a fan of these kinds of games, just get it, it's only 3 euros :)

Glad to hear! The rewind feature is a great idea, but, unfortunately, we rejected it in the early stages of development. Not sure if it was the right decision : )
Your article helps with understaning what impression the game makes. Thanks and good luck you too with your efforts!

Thank you for the compliment, I have enjoyed this brain-teaser quite a bit, well done! Curious to see what those ideas will be, I'm hoping one of them to be the rewind feature. Good luck for the launch!

Thank you. I'm sure you could probably tell from reading the article, but Out of Sight is a game that feels particularly personal for me, partly due to my state while playing it, but also because I had been waiting for a Prey sequel for years and will likely be waiting forever.
I hope I was able to keep my objectivity - I tried!
I would love to return to Prey sometime for a review.
I'll have to see if I can track down a copy when I'm done with my current projects.

As someone who also loved the original Prey but tried hard and failed to enjoy the 2017 release (not a bad game, just not for me), I thought this article was really well written. Maybe one day you'll consider doing a retro review of the original?

UPDATE: There are now 100 products in the Trove. Of course, the majority of these are smaller or novelty titles, as there's no way to purchase OP points and fraud up to now basically cut away the little profit we made from things like quests or ads, they're essentially reskinned giveaways, so there's only so much we can list for "purchase" there.
The store will include both Trove and standard products, so is the place to look for any more premium games you might want - but again, as per the article, this is majorly being stripped back and will hold limited titles moving forward.September 20, 2023 -

The Trove had already been cut back, the store is where the bulk of the work needs to be done as this can't be done automatically like we could with the Trove.
That said, we expect to be able to add more to the Trove once the store work has been completed so it should actually increase a little.
