Review of the Last day of June (Last Day of June)
Opinion on the recently released small masterpiece.Studying the products of modern igroindustrii, the more and more I notice, that really is a mental games out too little. We have almost every month get AAA products with a faceless open world, same type of quests, empty characters and a hackneyed plot. But always want something deep, unusual and emotional. And the more valuable now recently Last Day Of June - a game that is not worse than the recently thundered Hellblade: Senua''s sacrifice shows all the pain of losing a loved one and all the levels of depression and psychosis for this reason.
The plot in this game is very tragic. First, we show the two lovers in each other cute characters, they care about each other. And in just a moment all that crossed random accident that takes the life of a girl and ostavlyayut main character for life an invalid. And then one day waking up from a nightmare, the guy discovers his ability, touching pictures of people, to return back to that fateful day that ended in disaster. And the whole game we have to try to save his beloved of the main character from death.
Gameplay the game is a standard quest adventure, in which we have to solve pretty simple puzzles based on choice. For this we have to simultaneously interact with multiple characters and their memories. For example, we remember the boy, which in that day ran into the road and caused the accident. For example, we did see him the other choice - he took a rope and went to play with a kite. And like all broke, and the accident should not be. But then we find that the following character memories can't use the rope (because she's a boy) in order to attach multiple boxes with Vesely to the back of the machine. Thus, when the carriage of the car body will be thrown out all things, she abruptly stops, opens the door, and then just going glavgeroy with a girl - and it happens crash. Then we return to the memory with the boy and make it so that he doesn't use a rope, etc. Each memory requires repeated adjustments in the process. Many, perhaps the gameplay will seem boring and repetative, but, oddly enough, in this game the main thing is the story and the emotions that we will experience.
Muzykalnoe support in the game is unmatched. The background sound is an integral part of the game, because the whole story you will not hear a single word in the dialogues of the characters, and the communication transmitted sounds in the style of The Sims. However, you need to listen carefully, because in the background you will still be able to hear the words closer to the end of the game. And it will help you to understand what is really going on here.
Graphics and special characters dash - no eyes - gives piksarovskimi cartoons, but inspired by the music video Drive Home by Stephen Wilson, admitted what the game developers themselves. And the image of the character without eyes allows the player to identify more with the character, because in this way the individuality of the character erased.
Optimization on all platforms quite fit.
Summing up, I want to say that Last Day of June is a very deep, emotional and psychological adventure. Personally, I was very surprised that none of the critics paid no attention to this game as a psychological adventure inside the mind, calling it Groundhog Day and explaining that the hero just has already become commonplace the ability to move in time. However, I want to mention that the game is much deeper and mnogosloinoi than it might seem at first glance. As for me, this little masterpiece, which was a pleasant surprise among the other titles this year. 10 out of 10.
As I understand it,the main character has the ability to time travel and he in the end gets to place Joon in the car,and June sits in the driver's seat.Then an accident occurs because of the storm and the main character dies,but before that, on a white background, he says goodbye to June.The image is then replaced in the family plot where June was hugging the tombstone of her husband and she was pregnant.After the credits she is sitting on the bridge in front of the lake and it runs already grown-up son, and she embraces him.
That is the question:if her husband gave his life for June(since the accident couldn't be avoided),why in the diary on the last page(which was painted her husband in a Superman costume) was the inscription Accept.Then it turns out,June could not survive.But we see the opposite:her husband died,and she had a baby and survived.So she stayed alive or is it again a dream of her husband?
well, there is all this happens in the mind of his wife - she's just in the mind has created a situation in which her husband, as Superman, is trying to change all that. It is HIS death to change the thoughts tried. Are all mental to the degree of losing a loved - nostalgia, an attempt to change, anger and acceptance. There it becomes clear when you grandfather trying to deliver a gift, there are no words, but it was at this time in the background you hear a woman scream with distinct words - No, please, no! And then we even show her the notebook with all versions. This is June at the end of resigned.

there all heroes whether in Japanese,Chinese talk-or th is unclear.Those screams I heard,but nifiga not understand.
Another box with a gift-what's inside lying? Even at the end of the game showed.
My review:
Would you like to change something in your past? To do things you never have time to do? To prevent something are unable to prevent it? Project from the Studio called Ovosonico Last Day of June will tell you the story of June and her husband Carl, and the attempts to change the past, trying to save a loved one, prevent a terrible accident.
Last Day of June has a rather unusual visual style, the game world as if painted using watercolors, and the people in it talk only the language of emotions and have no eyes. By itself Last Day of June is a moving story with a simplified puzzle gameplay remotely similar to Stacking. Would crash if the local boy had not run out would be on the road for the ball, and was busy with something else? Can we change the past? The game gives you the opportunity to see the fateful day through the eyes of each of the characters and make adjustments, trying thereby to avoid the accident. But is it really that easy as it seems at first glance?
The plot of the game, by the way, has its surprises and unexpected turns that add to it plus a single. Although the comments of some players talking about the fact that not all understood what was happening.
It is a pity the plot is linear and no variety in the game in fact present, and viewing the same cut-scenes fateful day eventually begins to drive them into depression. In addition, the game, for this story to someone may seem too frivolous places. And the immersion in the atmosphere for emotional experience here is not as strong as the peers.
The result: a very good and colorful sentimental thing, which is easily moved you in the finals.
7.5/10
In General, the plot is almost one to one as in the movie the butterfly Effect 2, at least the part about a car accident, pregnancy, pictures (paintings) and sacrifice.
