The year is 1989. You are a man named Henry who has retreated from your messy life to work as a fire lookout in the Wyoming wilderness. Perched high atop a mountain, it’s your job to look for smoke and keep the wilderness safe. An especially hot, dry summer has everyone on edge. Your supervisor, a woman named Delilah, is available to you at all times over a small, handheld radio—your only contact with the world you've left behind. But when something strange draws you out of your lookout tower and into the world, you’ll explore a wild and unknown environment, facing questions and making choices that can build or destroy the only meaningful relationship you have.
I thoroughly enjoyed this game, I can see why some didn't like the ending but it was a journey worth experiencing.

Still using this theme, one of the best on PS4.
It's very relaxing.

Was VERY close to getting this for my PS4 on initial release but read a lot on bugs and performance hits. Still the case or 'fixed' now do we know?

The bugs were patched out shortly after release. I played it on day of release and didn't really have an issue anyway.
Well worth a look, IMO. It's only 5-6 hours long, and doesn't really have much replay value, but it's an engaging story and the scenery is absolutely lovely.

What this guy said. Played on release and while there was a noticeable stutter when the auto save kicked in, it hardly rendered the game "unplayable". The internet making a mountain out of a molehill again. Apparently resolved now, regardless.
And yeah, it's more of an experience than a game. Took me about 5-6 hrs, too. Well worth it at this price (comparable to a cinema ticket).

i bought the game full price for steam was somewhat dissapointed as there's no real replay value plus i completed the game in 2 and a half hours without any walkthrough or rushing through the storyline, some people on steam completed it in under 2 hours and got refund, i really wish they would bring out dlc or something more like open exploration without storyline or something but they have no plans to and have announced they won't as they will be soon working on a new game.

This is a terrific game - I absolutely loved it. There's not much replay value as TallerPaul said, but its worth the money even for the short experience it gives you.
