Lost in Play

Lost in Play is a game for those who missed two seasons of Gravity Falls, a funny and inventive adventure of a brother and sister lost in their own imagination. What trials threatens the journey through the world of dreams, we tell in our review. The plot of Lost in Play can be described in one sentence: brother and sister, Toto and Gel, played, got lost in the vastness of their imagination and are now looking for a way home. The whole game is a long journey, during which the characters get to different locations, communicate with bizarre characters one of them, a cheerful bearded fairy, accompanies the children throughout the adventure and look for a way out of the situations they get stuck in.

About This Game

What is more important here is not «what», but «how», not the final goal although it is definitely important, but how teenagers will get to it. There are enough interesting scenes in the game: either the heroes find themselves in the middle of an endless sea, or they rise to a heavenly city, or even get captured by an ambitious goblin. Random acquaintances help them get out of trouble, although Toto and Gel are not averse to helping those who need it for example, removing an unlucky skydiver from a tree or collecting sheep scattered around the area. The game teaches not to leave your neighbor in trouble why not a visual aid for kids.

The protagonists are very much like the heroes of the Gravity Falls mentioned above Toto, like Dipper, is more reasonable and calm, while Gel is eccentric and in a good way crazy, like Mabel. Children, however, do not have unique skills, and the game periodically shuffles them, offering to play either as a brother or a sister. The game Lost in Play is similar to the Alex Hirsch show not only in the characters of the protagonists, but also in the art and, most importantly, in humor. Even the gibberish spoken by the characters makes you smile, let alone the cutscenes and funny animations that Lost in Play is rich in. Each location is full of details, and funny creatures are touching with their behavior. My personal favorites are that bearded fairy and goblin with speech impediments and megalomania.
