A Tragic Story: The Kite Review

The Kite is a point-and-click game that bravely tackles the topic of domestic abuse. It puts players in the shoes of a woman who has an abusive husband and a missing son. This game is not your usual adventure-filled storytelling experience, but it is equally challenging and engaging. Get ready for an emotional ride.

The game begins with the introduction of the family's unfortunate circumstances. Players will navigate a messy apartment and interact with various objects to progress the story. Dialogues escalate quickly to a fight between the woman and her husband, leading to their son running away with his favorite kite. The first challenge is to successfully escape the apartment, similar to an escape room game, by solving riddles and puzzles. The Kite keeps its mechanics simple to ensure players understand the story and stay invested.

The Kite utilizes dark and depressing themes with its grayscale visuals and hollow character designs. The backdrops are detailed yet lonesome, effectively conveying the sad reality of living in an abusive household. The game is a slow burn that pulls on heartstrings as players progress. Despite its simplicity in mechanics and 2D graphics, The Kite aims to relay a message and make players see the other side of the coin.

Pros: Interesting game plot, unique art style, emotionally captivating, easy game mechanics.

Cons: Monotone, repetitive music, may be triggering, no mini games.
