SquareXO
By Rebecca StowIn short, Old Man’s Journey is a pleasant meander through an old man’s life and the town he lives in. It’s a masterclass in visual storytelling one which draws out emotion from every player. This touching tale is a path that deserves to be trodden by all gamers.
GamePitt
By Rob PittOld Man’s Journey is an emotional, narrative-less experience in which you must guide an ‘Old Man’ as he embarks on a trip based on the mysterious letter he received in the post. Although the game has one core mechanic – the raising and lowering of hills – the game changes things around by introducing hazards and various other mechanics which will make you think. The whole game looks and sounds beautiful with an amazing art style and a pleasant soundtrack which combinate into an emotional story of discovery, loss, and regret.

By Ismael Mercado SánchezOld Man's Journey is a very emotional and beautiful game that cannot be blamed for anything other than its simple gameplay and its short duration, which compensates with the rest of its aspects and how it enters through the eyes (and ears).
