Nihilumbra plays with the duality of life and death. I believe it’s more focused on making the player try to connect with the character and understand this relationship, rather than focusing on the puzzles and the gameplay. Yet the post-game content more than makes up for this, as the gameplay is allowed to take centre stage and show the strengths of the developers and that they know how to put well though out puzzles together. Nihilumbra is a game that really anybody can enjoy, it’s just a shame that they hid the difficult levels behind the story mode. That being said, it’s worth a play through for the narrative alone; a strong, and somewhat emotional reflection on the player and how they exist within their own world.
