Reviews

“The Great Perhaps is a beautiful, melancholic time-travel adventure that, from time to time, invites you to think.”
80 – 4PLAYERS

“The Great Perhaps constantly reminds you of everything, and everyone, that was lost in whatever this disaster was, and when the lantern inevitably times out and snaps you back to the present, it’s like rudely waking up from a pleasant dream into a living nightmare.”
COGconnected

“There’s nothing quite like a quirky, interesting, and mechanically unique indie game[...]. Caligari Games and Daedalic Entertainment have presented us with such a situation, combined with a fascinating gameplay mechanic which is essential to solving the games’ puzzles.”
