Critic Reviews
- It’s clear that time and effort went into What Comes After. The art style is beautiful and the skittery way that Vivi moves when she’s walking fast fits her personality very well. There’s a handful of decent elements here, but for a story-driven game, it just doesn’t offer enough of a compelling story.
Becca Smith · Apr 02, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - It’s a very anti-suicide piece but doesn’t quite delve quite deep enough into the subject for my liking. Still, theoretically it could be a good piece for some who suffer from some form of depression, as it was a cathartic experience for the writer at least, and I’ll commend them for it.
Pyre Kavanagh · Mar 25, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Overall, your mileage is going to vary in What Comes After. It is a very short experience, clocking in at just around an hour long, so even if you find the gameplay to be a tad tedious, the game at the very least does not overstay its welcome.
Joe Devader · Mar 19, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Taking everything into consideration, I would absolutely recommend this game. The aesthetics in combination with the meaningful, positive narrative come together to construct the complete package for a short ride into What Comes After.
Stephanie Minor · Mar 18, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - For an hour’s worth of emotional, important gameplay at the price of a cup of coffee, What Comes After is a must-play for anyone who needs to be reminded that life is worth living.
Heather Johnson Yu · Dec 19, 2020 Reviewed on PCRead full review - What What Comes After lacks in length, it more than makes up for with engaging character dialogue and a willingness to discuss lofty themes in a balanced and emotional way. This is a visual novel worth flicking through.
Aaron Potter · Mar 30, 2021 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - What Comes After is a heartwarming way to spend a couple hours. While it lacks in longevity and may leave the player wanting more from a gameplay perspective, its lasting impact lead from its themes of death, letting go and mental illness cannot be understated. This game is a tear-jerker, that's for sure, but it's wholesome in so many wonderful ways.
