So I higly recommend you buying the game and playing it yourself It's a masterpiece and there's no other way to describe this game. If you don't have the money, nintendo switch or a computer you can click here and watch my video playing GRIS for the first time, in addition to understanding how incredible this game is This is Gris GRIS is the story of a girl who is lost in her own world, dealing with a painful experience Gris stands in a completely empty world, and continues walking among the ruins of her own world Until she finally got to grips with what she was trying to avoid, and finally have to face the reality of what happened Her refuge is no longer there.
When faced with the reality of this for the first time, Gris suffers almost an explosion of emotions and her world Finally starts to have some kind of color After that, she goes ahead and ends up finding some kind of palace that is completely destroyed and empty Arriving at the palace, she finally understands her final destination, she understands that she needs to reach the stars But for this she needs to face her most intense feelings of her So, she goes ahead and Begins to slide towards a red desert Arriving there she finds a lot of extremely violent sandstorms To advance in this desert, she must learn to deal with these storms Hiding in propitious places not to be hit and pushed back After a long time dealing with these storms, Gris finally learns a skill that makes her resist these storms After that she falls into a dark and cold place And she finds almost a reflex, a Shadow of herself, and when she tries to attack this reflection, the shadows that form this "mirror" They run away And they come out almost like a rash Gris continues to progress And now that she has learned to deal a little better with the storms the world has changed, it seems like it is much more Balanced now, instead of finding sandstorms Gris now finds machines and Gears that look like they're working for her, it's almost like she's seeing the world in a new way. Seeing the world with literally new colors, she keeps following and sees herself again in that same palace Arriving there she notices that there is a tree that grew in the middle of the palace And the starry sky she had seen before now has more stars, the path has increased And because of this tree that grew in the middle of the palace it manages to reach a new area She moves on, but this time she's not alone. She begins to be pursued by those same shadows who had fled earlier She keeps walking and eventually she finds herself in a forest Exploring, she finds a little creature that at first runs away and hiding from Gris, but soon after Gris discovers she can feed the little creature And the creature begins to follow her After feeding the little square a few times, Gris made a new friendship And grace to this new friendship now she can access underground areas that she could not before, and the creature is still following her and Imitating everything she does Eventually the little creature and Gris split up, and she continues to follow her path Until again she begins to find several creatures very similar to her little friend and She meets again the little friend who now seems much happier in the midst of all the little animals like him The friend gives her a gift, one of the stars she needs to take to make progress And thanks to this star, Gris learns a new skill She now can fly with butterflies around her With her new ability, Gris rises and flies with the butterflies Until arriving at some type of palace in the sky And on top of that palace, Those shadows were waiting for her This time, the shadows have adapted themselves, and they become a giant bird Using the skills that she learnd untill now, Gris try to Figth this bird and keep folowing her path Until eventually, she defeat this bird using the sounds of a giant bell After defeating this bird, she meets the statue again.

This time she's another Gris Gris is a girl that lost your own mother If you find all memories, that are hidden objects around the game, you unlock a scene that reveal that for you Gris lost her mother, but it's not about that The history is about her journey Is a story about to feel empty and keep going because you know that is the right thing to do Is finally face what's happening to you, and be bombard with a lot of intense feelings Like storm of fury, anguish, it's resist this storms and transform this feelings in pillars that keep your world balanced making work in your favor instead against you It's can see the world in new ways Opening storage to you can appreciate the nature around you and discover that even you are distressed even during your pain and suffering You has the capacity to guide someone that may be so lost and alone like you Thanks to the learning and these new experiences, she can face the shadows that keep chasing her It's about she dive in her deepier feelings and build incredible friendships and discover that even when everything seemed lost They will be there and protect you It's about she explore the stars, future dreams with the learning that she has brought so far To finally can look the world with another perspective completely different Even discovering all this, the truth continue the same She's not there anymore.
She never be there. No matter what Gris do This part of her life gone In fact. .
. she will be always there Don't matter what happens She make part of Gris now, and she will continue alive inside her forever She make part of what build Gris, like if was a statue decorating a palace And Gris. .
. finally understand that Gris for me, is one of the masterpiece more beautiful that exists, because it's a story about pain, it's a story about grown and deal with suffering and don't have any word Gris was built in a way so clear and beautiful that no matter the player's language. The game don't have any word Anyone can absorb and understand the message Gris is not beautiful only the incredible visuals that seems like a picture in front of you but is a complete masterpiece of music, visual and story that some have impacted me until today The statue of Gris was her mother, however.
. . the statue is only a metaphor, the game is about lose something that's very important for you It can be a family, can be your pet What's your statue?
