The interactive mechanics in the games are very varied, but Before Your Eye's surpasses many games that I have played so far, it is a very short game in which we are going to go through a story with many twists and beautiful moments, some not so much, but it is a very good story, the surprise component of this game is that we are not going to use our hands to handle ourselves, but we are going to use our eyes.
In my case I used the phone's camera and an application to recognize it as a webcam and thus be able to have the experience that the game proposes, every time we blink the game will advance to the next part, they are fragments in time jumps of Benjamin's life
It is a journey through his life and his history, his successes and his mistakes, how his parents intervened in his life and how each thing that happened took him to that place, from the most distant memory to the last one that exists in his life, we will go. accompanying him and seeing everything he went through.
It's a bit of a sad story 😭 but it's worth playing, the game is very cheap and also if you have a Netflix subscription you can play it for free, I have it on Steam but the option to play it on your phone seems interesting to me since it you need the camera and it should be easier to handle.
The difficulty is to keep your eyes wide open so as not to miss anything, a slight blink makes you quickly go to the next scene without the possibility of going back, this is great, in some scenes there is a minute hand and when it stops moving it no longer We'll have more information, but sometimes it's more than a minute hahaha it was fun to hold out so I could understand more of what was happening.
A secondary but important character in her life is her neighbor and friend, the part of the story of these children is nice, we also see some parts of their life as adults and just a little of the life she has afterwards, but it is quite brief .
It is an emotional story, full of unexpected twists and with very fresh mechanics, I really liked it, it is also short and can be finished in one sitting of no more than 2 hours, it took me 1 and 50 minutes to finish it because it really I didn't blink at all while playing except what was strictly necessary, I hope you get a little curious and are encouraged to try this great game.
Until next time ❤️ Yowi.
