When the Past was Around is a love letter for me. Puzzle, great story, beautiful theme & visual environment, and bittersweet ending. I love a game that explores humanism and human feelings through metaphors. And this is a masterpiece.

I literally only got to play 1 chapter before it told me to "buy the full version", this game is a rip-off, I loved playing it so much, but I barely even got to! Please, let people who don't want to buy, or can't afford, the full version, play a few chapters, instead of just one. Like, what the heck, I thought this game was free, turns out it just wants you to pay for what? A few chapters just cause it got popular?! I'm only rating this 2 stars cuz I liked the art
