By Mehdi Belhamra"A deeply human and moving narrative" Perfect Tides: Station to Station offers a narrative adventure experience focused on college life and creative ambition, presented in a deeply personal and moving way. The strong writing, innovative mechanics, and polished art design make it a successful sequel and a title in its own right. Despite its relatively slow pace and limited world, the depth of the emotional experience and interactive choices make the game a valuable addition for fans of interactive storytelling.

By Michael SeifertPerfect Tides: Station to Station is the perfect point-and-click adventure for millennials but also appeals to younger audiences who are just turning 18 or are at least not too far off. Meredith Gran manages to paint a relatable picture of a young woman coming of age and I'm quite sure there are situations everyone out there will initially shake their head and ask, "Mara! Why?!" only to realize a moment later that they probably would have reacted the same way when they were younger. The writing tasks and books offer a bit more gameplay variety than its immediate predecessor, but it never gets truly difficult, which I didn't really mind. The dialogues and the story entertained me so well throughout the entire game and I hope that we will see more of Mara someday.

By Checkpoint GamingPerfect Tides: Station to Station is a superb second chapter to an incredibly underrated point-and-click adventure, taking advantage of real-life stories and struggles to paint a beautifully moving and engaging story about a creative trying to make it big while making sense of the world. It too is a perfect time-capsule game of the early 2000s, filled with laser-sharp wit and references. Within is profound prose that uses an unconventional approach to game narrative to tell a divine coming-of-age tale that’ll be relatable to many. Bolstered by gorgeous pixel work, striking on-two’s animation and unique mechanics for the genre, Mara’s tales of love and loss as a creative in New York are quintessential storytelling for those who value game narratives. Come on in, the water’s damn fine.
