Game Ratings for The Gap Video Game.
XboxEra: 7.8 / 10 by Genghis Husameddin
For my slights with the overall narrative, however, The Gap offers real problems, giving a more sci-fi glimpse to the world of genetic and neurological disorders and how it impacts dreams, ambitions, and our families. For those that love to delve into the mind and its inner workings (with a bit of stretching done to the science behind it), look no further than here.
Garage Band Gamers: 9 / 10 by Chad Johnson
It’s been a little over a day since I finished The Gap and I am still processing everything that I experienced within the walls of Joshua’s mind, and if you choose to enter it, it will likely draw you in akin to the way What Remains of Edith Finch or your favorite narrative based walking sim would. Despite suffering due to a lack of direction on a few of the puzzles, it’s a game that you won’t forget.
Rectify Gaming: 10 / 10
The Gap is an extraordinary and awe-inspiring creation that transcends the boundaries of conventional gaming. It is a testament to the power of interactive storytelling, offering players a unique opportunity to explore the intricacies of memory, emotion, and the human psyche. The game’s ability to seamlessly weave memories, emotions, and alternate dimensions into a cohesive and immersive experience is a testament to the creative genius of Label This and the skilled craftsmanship of Crunching Koalas. The Gap is not just a game; it’s a work of art that challenges players to think, feel, and reflect on their own experiences. The minimalist ambiance, the exploration of parallel realities, and the themes of self-reflection and trust all come together to create a gaming experience that is unlike any other.
