The real review

Will: Follow the Light is a gorgeous but troubled sailing adventure where the beautiful, bleak visuals and heartfelt story can't save the frustrating gameplay and broken performance. While a few players were hooked by the sailing itself and the emotional core, most reactions were mixed, with many calling out TomorrowHead Studio for a buggy launch. The game is reportedly a technical mess on all platforms, especially PC and Xbox, making it hard to recommend at its current price.
