Pulse is a first person survival game that takes place in an unseen world revealed only by sound. Journey as Eva, a young girl who lost her sight at an early age, and has since developed the unique capability to "see" the world around her through sound. Using this ability, and with help from the spirits of the forest, explore the forbidden paths once walked by your ancestors and discover the truth. Step into a world on the edge of collapse. Earthquakes shudder through the land, but why?

Spoil Everything

As an experience Pulse its really interesting, but at the end the game feels more as an unfinished concept than a finished game.

Pulse, if nothing else, doesn't feel finished. It feels like an alpha build that got pushed out so early it may have upset Early Access customers. While it obviously has potential (it's walked away with awards, after all), it feels largely incomplete, and like it should have been pushed through play-testing a bit further. If it gets some more depth, or, at least, if the depth it has gets fixed up and becomes more cohesive, it may live up to a lot of the hype it's generated. Until then, it's a game that exemplifies that just because an idea is good, it doesn't mean the product will be.

A faithfully promising concept with an ultimately (at the very least) questionable execution.

Playing a blind girl helped me see how challenging it was, but I wish I saw a reason to care about the world Eva lived in.

Sadly, Pulse is a linear experience, with a critical route that must be followed. Curiosity sapped.
