| One of the most successful game by the company Tale of Tales, The Path is different from other games. It's an art game, which means that the gameplay is simple, and has no levels whatsoever. What's unique about The Path is that it takes our childhood story of Little Red Riding Hood...and adds a whole new twist to the tale.
You choose between 6 sisters (from oldest to youngest) - Scarlet, Carmen, Ruby, Ginger, Rose, and Robin. You are given no information on them other than the girl's name. Once you have chosen your player, you are taken to the start of a wide path, where your mother tells you to go to grandma's house and stay on the path. You can do that or wander into the surrounding forest and meet the girl's assigned "wolf". Each "wolf" is different to each girl and once encountered and you are taken back to the house, the girl you played will no longer be there. Once all girls are gone, you can choose to play with a dark girl in a white dress - a character that the girls may encounter in the forest who leads them back to the path. Once you have played her, she will appear in the apartment again, but covered in blood. The sisters will return and you can play again.
As you go through the forest, you will see collectibles, however, there is no action button. In order for you to pick up the item, have the girl stand close to it and let go of the controls. The girl will say something about the item and it will go to your basket. If you play as another character, they will each have something to say about the items that you have collected.
The graphics are excellent, and so is the music background, but it will get boring if this is not your kind of game. Everything in the game has a metaphorical meaning, which is up to the player to interpret. If you have a wide curiosity like the girls in the game, maybe this is worth checking out. 8/10 | |

| Uhhh, the game sounds weird. Sounds like a mystery game or one of those point and click adventures. Definetly something I wouldn't want to play. | |

| Cloud has a lot of psychological issues. I mean sure he's strong, but if he suddenly has a seizure Sephiroth would probably kill him. | |
