Last Day of June wants you to feel a certain way, but the way it goes about it is clumsy and haphazard, and the visuals are...

How far are you willing to go to save someone you love? How much are you willing to sacrifice if it means you can bring them back from the dead? These are questions that The Last Day of June begs you to answer. Inspired by Steven Wilson's Drive Home, it...

Last Day of June paints a world that is visually beautiful on the surface and darker at its core, but its emotional story loses luster quickly. While some narrative twists drew me in nearing its conclusion, I never connected enough with the story and felt distracted by its repetitive nature.

Impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash. How we score: The Destructoid Reviews...

This beautiful, melancholic game taps into the deep-instilled feeling in us that screams 'what if i could have done something differently?' when life deals us a painful hand. It's an experience that I'm sure will stay with you.

Last Day of June is a beautiful presentation of a heart-wrenching tale that is hindered by less-than-stellar game mechanics. It should be noted Last Day of June was partially designed to appeal to people who don’t regularly play video games.

Last Day of June is a narrative puzzle game that makes full use of a wide range of powerful emotive devices to make its point. Its fairly straightforward puzzles won't keep you up, scratching your noggin at night, but the effect of its wonderful characters and the love they have for one another will leave you feeling like you belong to something bigger than yourself.

Here's something crafted and beautiful. Ovosonico's Last Day of June is a game about a handful of hours, played and replayed with the increasing desperation of impotence. “What would you do to save the one you love?” its strapline asks. By the end of...

It pays off though. Playing Last Day of June is monotonous at times but that's my one quibble with what's otherwise an incredible experience—the last 30-odd minutes in particular. The puzzles are solid, the art is fantastic, the music is the wheels on...
