Anyone going into Mountain expecting a standard 'game' is in for a **** surprise. There isn't anything to do in Mountain, other than sketch out your feelings at the start, and play little tunes on your keyboard as your mountain spins along. While that sounds painfully boring, ten minutes into my first playthrough I was in love with my mountain. I played it songs on my keyboard during snowy days, and welcomed each random item (which will crash into your mountain periodically) with some nice notes. Other than that I didn't really do anything. I left Mountain up while I messed around on the web, and ate and watched movies. Every once in a while, mountain would ding, and a meandering thought would scroll by on the top of the screen. Sometimes these thoughts we funny, sometimes uplifting and sometimes they were depressing. It was strangely emotional, watching this mountain question it's own beauty, or marvel at the clear night sky. The game is one dollar, and why it isn't everyone's cup of tea, I think everyone should try it. Just leave it up in the background for a while and see how you feel after a few days.
