A quiet favourite
If you're into point and click adventure games from a mechanical point of view primarily, this might not be the game for you. The puzzles are not complex, the game is not long. However, the story is what makes this game and the technical work done to put the player into a Ghibli style animation/illustration story well worth the play through. I recommend play through this twice, play through it the first time, focus on just completing the game and finding out the story. Once you know the story, take a break, play again and take time to really look around. The enviroment is very impressive from a technical standpoint of seeing parts of the background move like you're living in that animation. There's also some enivromental storytelling you may miss because of lack of context to first time around. The story is really good, again it's not complex, but it's a story that I think a lot of people can relate with. A story about what-ifs and missed chances.

I went in this game totally blind
I went in this game totally blind. I just saw few screenshots of the game and instantly fell in love with the artstyle, so I think that is the thing I should talk about first. This games artstyle is heavily, and when I say that I mean HEAVILY inspired by the works of Studio Ghibli. I personally love the artstyle, as I've grown up with movies like Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro and Laputa. Those movies have been a big part of my childhood, and seeing their artstyle being adapted into a game is wonderful. The art during the gameplay is beautiful, and the art in the cutscenes feel like something straight from a Ghibli movie. I am not sure if there is multiple endings available, as of right now I've only played the game once. The gameplay is typical Point & Click adventure, with quite interesting gameplay mechanics, which I haven't at least seen in a game before. The gameplay mechanics are interesting, even though they sometimes guide the hand of the player a bit too much. The story is surprisingly rich, I love how the developers managed to put in such a deep and interesting story into a fairly short game (just about the length of a short film). Then, let's talk about the music, which is absolutely beautiful. The OST is such a nice cherry on top of a beautiful story and a beautiful visual presentation. This game is less of a game, and more of a movie, with beautiful visuals, beautiful music and a nice story. And I feel like thinking of Behind the Frame as a movie/cinematic experience, instead of viewing it as a game, is the right way to view it. Overall, a beautifully crafted, beautifully written story. Even though the game is fairly short, it's still easily worth the price tag.
