Double Fine's Keeper: A Surreal Experience with Limitations
Double Fine's latest game, Keeper, embraces the weirdness fans expect, featuring a living lighthouse and its mutant bird companion. The game excels in its visual artistry, but gameplay feels lightweight, relying on simple puzzles and exploration that may not satisfy all players. Despite its unique premise, the mechanics often fall short of delivering engaging challenges. - The ability to control time is intriguing, yet results in familiar, lackluster puzzles. - The focus on GamePass allows for more creative risks, but I wonder if this will lead to truly compelling gameplay. While Keeper is a charming mood piece, it risks blending into the sea of indie titles that prioritize style over substance. I hope future updates reveal deeper mechanics that match the strange beauty of its world.
