Gamer Social ClubSean "KingOTheCask" RichardsMay 20269.5/10WILL: Follow the Light, without the few negative hiccups I noted, is a 10 out of 10 game. But as it stands right now, the few nits that exist within the game pull away from that score slightly - but only slightly. That being said though, if these updates and needed fixes are made, I can easily see this being a can’t-miss game. The beautiful, yet heart-wrenching story, coupled with the intriguing puzzles and environment of the game itself make for an unforgettable digital experience.

GamingBoltJoelle DanielsMay 20268/10WILL: Follow the Light tells a simple story of a man trying to look for his son after a massive storm, and along the way, has to confront the mysteries of his own life. The intimate nature of the core premise is compelling enough to carry this walking simulator throughout its entire runtime.

Pixel ByteLuis AvilésMay 20268/10When all is said and done, WILL: Follow The Light shines in its particular moments of calmness while sailing through the icy waters of the north. Its pitch-perfect soundtrack, evoking Max Richter’s On The Nature of Daylight, leaves a tinge of melancholy. The story itself does not shy away from the inevitability of death.

TheSixthAxisAran SuddiJul 20265/10WILL: Follow The Light shows potential through its opening but doesn't deliver on its premise. What should have been a high-stakes story becomes a dull journey, and the story beats don't hit as they should. The sailing is, at least, excellently done, but more focus should have been on that.

Smash JumpJoseph ShayJul 20264/10As a short film there may have been something memorable about this story. As a game, it feels like a fluffed up experience with something to say, but takes far too long to say it.
