How it feels

A quiet, contemplative journey through memory, where you gently sort through personal objects and shift your perspective to uncover emotional moments from a woman's life.

What players say

Players describe Hindsight as an interactive storybook with simple camera-rotation puzzles. Most praise the emotional story about a woman reflecting on her strained relationship with her Japanese immigrant mother. Some find the lack of challenge refreshing, while a minority call it barely a game. It takes about two hours to finish and leans more toward cinematic viewing than gameplay.
