    A fox traveling through a fairy-tale-like world alone is charming enough, but it is how the tale of this fox and a man come together that makes The First Tree so special. This is one of those games you must play before having it spoiled at all costs.

    I’d love to have played a game that tried to explore that rocky landscape, with some nuance, some introspection, and most of all, with some humility. This is not that game.

I really liked graphic but it was glitching sometimes. By glitching graphics I mean it was not rendering on longer distance (I have great PC). I must admit sometimes it was boring, but maybe because I was staying on one spot to not skip conversation and then run, sometimes I didn't know where to go but I liked the surrounding world soo it wasn't soo bad. I enjoyed music and conversations. Soo to summary I liked art style, but it was glitchy sometimes, great music and story, sometimes bugs or not knowing direction where to go and sometimes it felt empty. In the end nice 2 hours of my life.… Expand

It is very cozy and has a very good story, but it is full of gliches. and the mechanics are very minimal. Also, I don’t think it would ever be worth the full price, with so little playing time. Eventually, the ending became so cozy that I would rather recommend the game.… Expand

The First Tree takes us on a journey through the depths of man's memory and trauma. On the conceptual and artistic level (and I mean both visuals and music) it's very unique. On the other hand gameplay is almost non-existent due to the fact that through the game we are almost entirely focused on the story told by dialogues and visuals. If the story holds, that's not an issue, but the story itself - unfortunately - didn't engage me enough. It was rather cliche and I-want-to-be-very-serious-life-drama type. I believe it failed. A possibility to send final words that can be found by other players was very nice.… Expand

    It has a great emotional story to tell, but its gameplay will bore you to sleep with its endless walking sections with nothing happening.It has a great emotional story to tell, but its gameplay will bore you to sleep with its endless walking sections with nothing happening. There are huge areas to explore, but everything is 90% empty and the fox runs so slowly that by the second half of the game exploring seems like such a chore that doesn't get rewarded at all. Also the jumping animation is ridiculous.… Expand
