The Unfinished Swan

The Unfinished Swan is a first-person painting game developed by Giant Sparrow. You play as a little kid who is chasing an unfinished swan, painting the landscape as you progress through the game. The child's name is Monroe, who has been placed in a world of white. Later to discover an unfinished kingdom where you journey through in search of the unfinished swan. Along the way, you'll encounter little story blocks that will tell you about the King and his legacy he wishes to leave behind.

The Unfinished Swan has a very good story to it. It'll keep you wanting more as you progress within the game. Puzzles will come up and challenge you for a few moments, but is very satisfying to figure out. The art style within the game is superb, and it just keeps getting better as you progress through the game. When you first start the game, everything is plain white. At certain points of the game, things will change, eventually shadow is introduced in some levels.

The soundtrack to the game is rather peaceful. I really enjoyed the music in the Unfinished Swan. I feel it helped with the experience of the game. The audio was very crisp. As you play, you can hear various creature make noise as you walked through an all white world. Frogs, crickets, and birds make a nice addition to the sounds you'll hear in the game. Sometimes Monroe will even say a few words, such as when you fall you'll hear him go "ahhh!" Sometimes he'll even say "Woah!"

I would recommend this game to whomever enjoys a good story as well as puzzles. If you are into art work, you might want to check this game out. It is a PlayStation Exclusive and can only be played on PS3, PS4, and Vita. This game won't be for everybody, and not everybody will have enjoyed it as much as I have. All I ask is that you at least give this game a try. It's only $14.99 on PlayStation Network. I'd rate it a four point five out of five.
