Bonbon is a short, first-person domestic horror narrative in which you play through the childs eyes, I don't even think I should call it a game, it's more like a short story, it's probably gonna take you around 20 minutes to finish it. Although I hated the gameplay, when I finished the game and started thinking about it, it gave me some insight, it's one of those games where you try to figure out the ending for yourself. So, you play as a little kid, and for the first 15 minutes you just put away your toys, but that creepy looking rat is always there watching you, and I guess helping you?
So, because I can't really type anything about the story because I don't wanna spoil it, let's just jump in to the scores.
STORY
RATING: 9/10
As I said, it's confusing, but it the end (and if you watch and listen to the details) it all (kinda) makes sense. The game really made me think about the ending and I always appreciate when games do that.
VISUAL PRESENTATION
RATING: 8/10
Bonbon is beautiful, not AAA beautiful but Indie beautiful, really like the visuals.
AUDIO PRESENTATION
RATING 5/10
Voice acting is weird, but I didn't expect much from the begginning, atmosphere is ... meh.
FINAL SCORE: 7/10
A good little horror game that's really cheap, I don't think you're gonna want to replay it but still, if you're a fan of these kinds of games, just get it, it's only 3 euros :)

Thanks for the review. This is such a beautiful and really good game. Also had 3 nomination on 2023 The Game Awards (Player's Voice, Best RPG, Best Art Direction). Personally, as a gamer who never play souls game this was a soft and smooth entrance for me to the genre. I really liked it. Definitely will play "new game plus" for some achievement hunt and explore further. Of course the DLC as well when it release.

Glad to hear! The rewind feature is a great idea, but, unfortunately, we rejected it in the early stages of development. Not sure if it was the right decision : )
Your article helps with understaning what impression the game makes. Thanks and good luck you too with your efforts!

Thank you for the compliment, I have enjoyed this brain-teaser quite a bit, well done! Curious to see what those ideas will be, I'm hoping one of them to be the rewind feature. Good luck for the launch!
