I played with 'Nintendo Switch' 'GRIS' which regains color to the world where I lost the color painted in watercolor painting



" GRIS " that girls who lost their voices run through the spiritual world where they lost their colors and regain their color is an ambitious work that was developed over two years and was launched on 13th December 2018 with Nintendo Switch and PC Steam) was released. It is a design that combines hand-drawn animation with games of watercolors and a game, it is a 2D action adventure game that is produced with overwhelming visuals almost without using words, I actually played with Nintendo Switch.

A girl who wakes up on the palm of a huge stone statue.



I will show off a beautiful singing voice, but suddenly my voice does not come out suddenly.



Then the stone statue collapses and the girl falls to the bottom of the abyss.



The girl who lost his voice lost his color and was struck by the world composed only of white and black.



The girl adventures the world that has become monochrome to regain color to the world. You can see how the girl actually moves in the following movie.

There are things that stars are falling down the road. The star you pick up becomes a constellation and becomes a foothold, moving the gimmick of the stage, helps the girl to move forward.



The following movie seems to move forward with a constellation as a foothold.

Running through the black and white world, I reached a huge palm cracked painfully.



When you ride in the palm, you can give a new color to the world like the following movie. Like a watercolor painted on a pure white drawing paper penetrates little by little, red penetrates into the monochrome world.

A red color is added to the world, and the girl runs through the desolated land like a desert.



In the desert, strong winds are generated, the sand is rolled up, and the girl is blown away.

However, you can get new power on the way. Here, the girl gets the ability to turn into a huge block. I do not have to worry about being blown away by a sandstorm.

While utilizing the power gained, I solve mysteries like puzzles prepared in the road and run through the red world. Going to the palm of your hand, green will return to the world this time.



Thanks to green being soaked in the world, plants grow in the desolated land, forming a thick forest.



When the girl ran through the forest, I encountered a small robot.



By letting the robot eat an apple that is wooden like the following movie, the robot nurtures friendship with the girl who was running alone in the world lonely and helps to proceed.

Going further, get the power to make a two-stage jump. In addition to becoming able to jump over steps and valleys that could not be exceeded so far, you can also jump even higher by asking red birds in the road to help them. You can see the actual two-stage jump in the movie below.

And there are countless black birds in the places we arrived.



Black birds fly around and flock ......



Make a shadow and turn into a huge bird.



If you repel this bird with the power you gained so far ...



You can regain new colors back to the world again. When regaining all the colors, please do play it yourself and see what happens to the world and what will happen to the girl.



Although the game supports Japanese, most of the words do not appear, and it is possible to fully understand with visual only. Animation in the game of all hand-drawn and director's coloring with motif of watercolor painting are overwhelming anyway, and there are scenes where I play breathtakingly. Although the visual is a tremendous work so much, it has become a stage composition that the game itself is simple but not getting tired, it has become reasonably difficult that it is not too easy and not too easy.

"GRIS" can be purchased for Steam version at 1730 yen including tax, Nintendo Switch version for 1780 yen including tax.
