I am a fan of side-scrolling platformers like Inside, Songs of Iron and Limbo, and One Last Breath has taken my gaming breath away! Personally, I am not the type of character to worry about “save the world” elements, however, One Last Breath sucked me into their world and made me think, that some of my real-world actions might have a massive effect on the world as we know it. That aside, the gameplay was wonderful and pleasant to play, with the short sharp and levels that made each section of the game palatable. I felt truly relaxed while playing, even though a wrong move could kill me.

One Last Breath sits comfortably between Inside and Planet of Lana and should be considered another triumphant example of the atmospheric puzzle platforming genre. If you love either of those games, you will want to play this one!

One Last Breath is a puzzle platformer with a very good narrative idea and a satisfying realization. Unfortunately the puzzles are very banal and some maps are made with very little care.

One Last Breath” is a short 2.5D puzzle-based platformer. It combines haunting visuals with sharp, tension-filled gameplay. You play as Gaia, the earth goddess, navigating a post-apocalyptic world to restore life to an Earth devastated by pollution and greed. It’s a joy to play but over far too soon. “One Last Breath” is a beautiful blast of fresh air on a hot day. It’s a great little game to fill some time in your gaming schedule, just make sure you have plans for something else afterwards.

One Last Breath is a captivating yet slightly flawed journey through a world on the brink of collapse. While its silent narrative and striking visuals offer moments of brilliance, the game is held back by inconsistent puzzles and technical issues. Despite its shortcomings, One Last Breath remains an intriguing addition to the puzzle platformer genre, offering players a hauntingly beautiful experience that lingers long after the credits roll.

One Last Breath is a love letter to the simple times when 2.5D narrative-driven games were at their peak. Since their absence, the title brings a fan-favorite back to the mainstream via its great storytelling and intriguing puzzles.

One Last Breath has some smart puzzles that feel familiar to the genre, but the world is so inviting despite it being on the brink of collapse. There isn’t a ton of originality in its puzzles or its creatures, but the way it tells its story without a single word is admirable, choosing to let the environments do the talking. There’re a few collectibles to find which allow you to explore certain areas, and with a delightful art style and beautiful score, it’s an easy recommendation for fans of the genre.

One Last Breath es directo y de mensaje claro. El Juego es corto y por eso invita a descubrir sus varios finales. El final principal es fácil de llevar a cabo. No es un juego complicado, pero invita a explorar las pequeñas posibilidades que tiene. Hay momentos preciosos y otros momentos de rabia hacia lo que estamos haciendo como seres humanos.

One Last Breath est un jeu indépendant qui se veut intéressant à parcourir. Sa direction artistique fait mouche immédiatement et son concept de base crée de l’intérêt puisque l’on se demande sans cesse ce qu’il se passe et quel est le rôle de notre personnage. Malheureusement, l’aventure – trop courte – manque de difficultés et son histoire, masquée derrière son ambiance et ses jolis environnements – reste beaucoup trop discrète.

One Last Breath si è rivelato un gioco dall'estetica piacevole, sebbene già vista. Un impianto audio video di livello, grazie a scelte stilistiche azzeccate. Il gioco è caratterizzato da una forte connotazione narrativa, una narrazione implicita ed introspettiva, che starà al giocatore dedurre da quanto vedrà e sentirà. Purtroppo si cade un pò a livello di gameplay dove i puzzle ambientali si rivelano un pò troppo semplici e non particolarmente intriganti, così come il ventaglio di interazioni possibili, piuttosto ridotto.

Still, it’s an engaging and interesting play. One Last Breath will test your reflexes and your fortitude, and potentially your own constitution for bearing the weight of guilt. This unapologetic and direct accusation of the pollution that plagues this world may not have a solution, but it certainly has a memorable presentation, and it compels me to keep playing all the way to the bittersweet end. Give an indie title a chance to hit you in the heart instead of your mind. While the horror titles of the year slowly roll out, why not take a moment to pick up something that may scare you in a different way?

One Last Breath focused on the narrative and left its gameplay with simpler features. This was a wise choice, but a little more care would have been welcome, from the inclusion of more scenes to greater graphic polish. The gameplay would also need some adjustments, but overall, it's an adventure that manages to deliver what it promises without disappointing.

One Last Breath est un jeu de plateforme et de réflexion très sympa, idéal pour passer une soirée immersive. Bien qu'il ne soit pas le meilleur du genre, se plaçant derrière des titres tels que Planet of Lana ou Inside, il offre néanmoins une belle aventure dans un monde post-apocalyptique à l'atmosphère captivante.

One Last Breath est un jeu qui nous lance directement dans l’action sans moult explications, ce qui n’est pas un trop gros défaut en soi puisque nous comprenons assez rapidement ce qu’il faut faire. Et même si l’histoire n’est pas racontée à la manière d’une narration ou de cinématiques, le contexte n’est pas du tout difficile à concevoir. Grâce à sa bande sonore et à ses tons sombres, l’ambiance est bien pesante et prenante et nous restons en haleine tout du long. Il est vraiment dommage que les graphismes n’aient pas été suffisamment travaillés car les monstres ne sont pas si effrayants que ça visuellement.

Pulling that all together what you’re left with is a game that obviously had some ambitions, and is able to cobble together elements to help realize them, but it just doesn’t quite get there. It’s possible that the conversion to the Switch may have not done it any favors, as its looks and performance don’t feel top notch by any means, but I’m not sure even on other platforms with less technical limitations that the gameplay would improve that dramatically. There’s a decent experience to be had here if you’re a fan of its style, but if you’re expecting it to live up to the level of its peers you’re likely to be disappointed.

Has some visual appeal and an inferred story that can build interest, but its play struggles to be distinctive or interesting

Since the game is so short, I still think it’s worth a try. When the game succeeds, it glows, and gameplay feels seamless and interesting. You might bang your head against it a little, but the solutions are always common sense and it feels incredible to work through something on your own. Just be warned that you probably won’t find the game’s ending particularly satisfying, but if you can look past that, One Last Breath does have something to offer.

For those who have not, One Last Breath keeps things vibrantly engulfing throughout its outstanding and varied levels, although the main themes and character could have used more individuality. However, it does not really do anything innovative or out-of-the-box with the puzzle-platform genre, resulting in the core message and the game not being as effective as they could have been.

One Last Breath is pretty, occasionally tense, but always slow, and fails to develop its puzzles or narrative in any meaningful way beyond the introductory sequence.

One Last Breath ofrece un estilo de juego que necesita desarrollos y momentos mucho más inspirados para conseguir transmitir y contar algo interesante. Desafortunadamente se queda en un intento sin chispa de puzles demasiado convencionales y un ambiente de tensión que se diluye poco a poco por lo encorsetado de cada suceso.

One Last Breath doesn’t wear its influences on it’s sleeves, but rather took the whole shirt as it doesn’t do enough to differentiate it from the games that came before. A short runtime and decent enough gameplay does make it pleasant enough but it ultimately doesn’t push for more.

One Last Breath is an ambitious game set in an artfully creepy world, with some great ideas in its foundation that unfortunately don't shine through as well as they could in its mechanics or storytelling.

One Last Breath's presentation is terrific but everything else about it is mediocre at best so unless you don't mind dealing with subpar puzzles and are a big fan of immersing yourself in a ruined world taken back by nature, I wouldn't bother with it.

One Last Breath looks great from a distance but that notion changes very quickly when you start playing it. There’s endless potential and it needs a ton more polish before it can really take off but even then, there needs to be more intrigue to hold anybody’s attention. The minimalist story is what might make this game forgettable and it’s a sad fate for any release, however, not all hope is lost yet and we might still see more get added to what could be a great game to possibly rival a similar release known as After Us.

No copycat should be satisfied in reproducing its inspiration without incorporating a visual, aural, story, and/or mechanical nuance alongside it. None of these four categories are met here, so what's left is a ditto platformer that's content with showing yet another hellish landscape after humans are nearly wiped out.
