Our Verdict
Very good
A game of very high quality. Although some aspects might have been executed better, we would recommend this game without hesitation.
It takes a while to build momentum, but The Whispered World ends up being a lush, gorgeous 2D adventure that succeeds in recapturing the nostalgia of both the genre’s Golden Age and childhood itself.
