Does RiME live up to fevered expectations, to its own influential forebears? Perhaps, and at its most effective, Tequila Works’ dreamy, abstract exploration combines the best elements of the subgenre's finest. Where the game truly shines is in touching choreographed stretches, moving moments wherein visuals, emotional direction, and transcendent music align in shockingly powerful ways. Contemplative, illusory, achingly forlorn and triumphantly buoyant, RiME will most certainly give you pause — a boy, an island, and one of life’s prevailing mysteries.

A slow-paced game that requires attention and imagination but repays with stylish beauty and solid puzzles. [08/2017, p.75]

It might not achieve the levels of ingenuity displayed by some of its counterparts, but Rime stands on its own merits. Its captivating visuals, engrossing soundtrack, and rewarding puzzles are a wonderful combination on their own, but the game’s narrative elements and ultimate payoff go well beyond expectations to deliver something truly memorable. It’s been a long journey to get here, but Rime is most certainly an experience you don’t want to miss.

I don't have a strong memory of this game, only the feeling I had while playing it. It was decent, nothing more, so 6.

Some may consider this game a "Journey" clone.. there are some similaritie, beatiful graphics, great soundtrack, walking from poimt a to b, however Rime incoprporates puzzles and the story isnt as criptic as journey when you reach the ending.
It is beatiful game with a heart breaking story, a little weaker in the gameplau department.

Rime más que un juego, es una experiencia donde cada paso se revela más información sobre los acontecimientos de los hechos del pasado llenos de tristeza. Me gustó la selección de capítulos el cual cada uno representa un sentimiento en forma de simbolismos y jugando con el ambiente. Recomiendo rejugar el juego porque es posible que al terminar la primera partida no seas posible de captar lo que te quieren mostrar realmente. Un detalle que me fascinó son las descripciones de los trofeos. En cada descripción del trofeo hay frases que estan relacionadas con la trama y con la temática del juego (recomiendo platinarlo). El único aspecto negativo es el final alternativo, se consigue al interactuar con 4 sombras blancas que estan situadas en los diferentes capítulos, una vez conseguido, al final del juego se desbloquea el final alternativo. En mi opinión, lo veo muy forzado y no encaja con la historia original. El precio creo que se va, 35 en ps store españa. El juego en si dura muy poco (unas cinco horas aprox). Incluso metiéndole un par de horas más obtienes el platino. Es mejor comprarlo en oferta.
Me alegra que los creadores de Rime sean de España :)

It’s an interactive metaphor for grief, and all those strange, complex emotions that all seem get balled into one when you’re grieving. RiME is a beautiful game in so many ways, but this is what makes it truly special.

In pairing back its design and focusing on only a few key elements, the studio has created an uncommonly beautiful, open-hearted game. The team's self-deprecation and shaky confidence belies an assured, courageously executed vision. The resulting adventure will give you chills and should stay with you for a very long time indeed. [July 2017, p.102]

This game was able to touch my heart. The story is deep and pretty, it has been made with a lot of soul. It has **** a beautiful soundtrack that I still listen many times, and for sure I will continue listening in the future.
Thanks to Tequila Works for doing this little piece of art. It is totally a gift you made to the community

Rime is an amazing game filled with wonder and **** is beautifully crafted with puzzles and action. I will say this game gets very good after the first part of the story but after finishing it, it will make you want to play it again. Not to mention the amazing graphics and art style in the game it creates a sense of peace for the player. The story in this game is one of the best ive seen in the game even though there is little voice acting. Which can be a good thing at times to make the player figure out whats going on in this world around him and what this place the boy is in actually is. Ok now all that is out of the way go buy this game it shouldn’t cost too much now and go have fun!

Rime is an exceptional game. It nails almost everything it tries to do, from the excellent graphics and heartwrenching music, to the interesting puzzles and engaging story beats. What really sets the game apart though, is the environments, with all their stories and secrets. Thus, Rime is a truly spectacular game experience that deserves to be played.

RiME is one of the most elegant free roam adventures out there, a beautiful and moving game.

Tequila Works’ efforts these past few years have delivered a game that’s full of beguiling charm and beauty, one that can stand up to many of the comparisons with some of the most fondly remembered games of the last decade. It doesn’t always meet those high standards, but Rime has been well worth the wait.

Rime is a pleasant title that's extremely easy on the eyes, and perhaps a little too easy on the brain.

Rime's artistry is unquestionable. Each world is enchanting in its own way, from the naturalistic peace of the first to the abstract doom of the last. Its soundtrack is similarly beautiful, capable of evoking wonder, tension, and fear in equal measure. But when compared to its influences like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and Journey, it doesn't hold up too well. Consistent navigation problems, some frustrating puzzles, fiddly platforming, and severe frame rate dips make Rime feel like a well-dressed tribute act.

This game reminded me of Journey. The music and story line is great, the only reason I had stopped playing this on PS4 was due to bad performance. But on PS5 it was smooth as butter. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Graphically really pretty, solid story, and puzzles that are largely put something somewhere, move it, put it somewhere else, but occasionally get a little obscure. Overall a solid adventure that "encourages exploration" with a LOT of collectables. Doesn't really stand out in very crowded genre, but pleasant few hours nonetheless

I'm curious if these 10/10 scores have actually played the game the whole way through? Sure, the look/style etc, is beautiful, but the gameplay is very bland. I love Journey and Brothers, and have played both several times - but Rime has very little engagement until the last 10 minutes; everything else borders on feeling like a chore. Only twice did I feel a sense of wonderment, and unfortunately, it never called me to explore the world beyond the task at hand. I had really been looking forward to Rime since its very first reveal, so it's been a bit of a downer that is turned out so "blah."

Played it for 10 minutes was bored out of my skull, there was no establishment of anything just started as boring as it possibly could, didn't know what to do, where to go. Not wasting my time. Glad i didn't pay money for it.
