    Thomas Was Alone is a new masterpiece of independent development. Essential and creative, brilliant and funny.

    Thomas Was Alone tells a story that's more complex than games orders of magnitude more expensive and difficult to develop. It's also a triumph of narrative's ability to convincingly superimpose human qualities onto nonhuman objects, telling the audience what's what (who's what?) and letting the imagination take over. It proves that you don't need tens of millions of dollars and hundreds of staff to make a game story worth telling, just a good hook, an engaging vision, and a whole lot of heart.

    Isn't a hard game, but it is occasionally a taxing one. [Sept 2012, p.108]
