HonestGamers Review // SeaBed

Gary Hartley Writes: Slow burn. For a while now I’ve been trying to think of a term that summarises Paleontology’s debut visual novel, SeaBed, and that’s what I’ve settled on. Slow burn. It tells a tale centring on loss and dealing with grief, but it’s in no hurry to do so. Slowly and carefully, it takes time to establish the people, the places, their stories and what they mean to each other. It tells its tale how it feels is best -- passé nonsense like a chronological order be damned. It doesn’t mind delving back into the past or invading the memories of its cast to replay scenes it feels are important.
