Never Alone has its heart in the right place and is a wonderfully expressive and beautiful-looking piece of software at times. It’s a title that is capable of invoking serious emotional responses when the stars are aligned, but that doesn’t happen very often. Some will be caught up in the emotion of it all and overvalue the game. Take that emotion out though, and you’re left with a product that is very much a point-to-point affair that doesn’t allow for any exploration, is short, has little replay value, and who's main mechanic - the interaction between the two characters - has a tendency to fail at inopportune moments. We’d welcome more games from the developer as there’s promise here, but promise may not be enough this time around.
