One Last Breath
March 28, 2024
One Last Breath tells a story about despair but also about hope. Even if the post-apocalyptic world of this 2.5D adventure is withered, Gaia’s powers might be enough to restore life. That won’t be easy, though. Lots of fearsome mutants will hunt her mercilessly Born from mother nature’s very last …

"One Last Breath is pretty, occasionally tense, but always slow, and fails to develop its puzzles or narrative in any meaningful way beyond the introductory sequence."
Read original review"One Last Breath focused on the narrative and left its gameplay with simpler features. This was a wise choice, but a little more care would have been welcome, from the inclusion of more scenes to greater graphic polish. The gameplay …"

"One Last Breath is a puzzle platformer with a very good narrative idea and a satisfying realization. Unfortunately the puzzles are very banal and some maps are made with very little care."

"One Last Breath is an ambitious game set in an artfully creepy world, with some great ideas in its foundation that unfortunately don&s;t shine through as well as they could in its mechanics or storytelling."

"No copycat should be satisfied in reproducing its inspiration without incorporating a visual, aural, story, and/or mechanical nuance alongside it. None of these four categories are met here, so what&s;s left is a ditto platformer that&s;s content with showing yet …"

"One Last Breath&s;s presentation is terrific but everything else about it is mediocre at best so unless you don&s;t mind dealing with subpar puzzles and are a big fan of immersing yourself in a ruined world taken back by nature, …"

"Thanks to One Last Breath’s interest in reviving this sort-of-forgotten subgenre, it was a refresher, at least for me. That doesn’t totally mean One Last Breath was a bit tedious to go to due to the simple puzzles, but hey, …"
