Other people may find this game preachy. I did not. Others may find it too short; I did not. For what it was, it was precisely the right length, and filling it out further would have detracted from it.

[T]here are the seeds of an excellent game in Blink. If it really had offered multiple paths, it could have been a compelling presentation of difficult choices, a la Tapestry. Even if it had remained on rails but its story and characters had been better fleshed out, it might have made a pretty moving character study. In its current state, though it's nicely implemented and it hangs together okay, it feels falsely advertised, and there's just not enough meat on its bones.

The game has several good points, with a pretty good conversation system, some nice uses of different viewpoints on the same locations, etc.
But the locations don't seem fleshed out, synonyms aren't all the way there, it's short, and it just seems unfinished in a way.

A short, nearly puzzleless, anti-war familiar drama. Very competent use of the medium and an interesting story. Too rhetorical and deliberate to be genuinely moving, but it gets close. It deserves to be played multiple times.
