Seen

Seen is a game that seems to trade on concealment, and that already tells you roughly who it is for: players who enjoy searching, noticing, and piecing things together. By our assessment, the appeal of a title with this name is usually in observation and inference rather than in action. The downside is that this kind of game can feel thin if the ideas behind the hiding are not strong enough, because the whole point depends on what is revealed. In play, that often means slower attention, repeated looking, and a lot of reading between the lines instead of quick spectacle. It sits in the smaller end of puzzle-minded games, closer to deduction than to twitch play. Seen is for people who like a quiet mystery and do not mind a game that makes them work for each step.
