Our take on How to Say Goodbye
The focus on environmental puzzles and a carefully framed grief narrative leaves little room for combat systems, character customization, or open-ended progression. Its structure favors a guided story across defined chapters rather than a broad world built for extended wandering.
What is How to Say Goodbye?
Guide a newly deceased ghost and other spirits through an unfamiliar liminal world in this narrative puzzle game.
Rearrange environmental objects to open paths and solve grid-based challenges while leading the characters onward. The journey spans more than 15 chapters and moves through settings including a kitchen and the moon. Along the way, the ghosts meet other spirits, seek peace, and confront the mysterious Wizard and the Spleens. The game frames grief, mourning, and death through an illustrated world influenced by picture books and children’s literature. Its progression combines environmental manipulation with a story about helping trapped ghosts escape and move on.
