"Sunlight" will throw some people off because it is not necessarily a game, but an immersive and contemplative piece of art. As others have mentioned, you simply walk through a forest and occasionally pick flowers for progression (with a beautiful rendition of "Hymn of The Cherubim" alongside harmonious storytelling occurring all the while). All of this *seems* to occur within the span of a half hour.
But-- the music, the painted world, and the sirens drag you towards this strange introspection of self. I feel like there are many ways to interpret what vaguely materialized in "Sunlight", and that is the point. This experience is to be felt by the self.
I was given this game, but I believe Sunlight is well worth $4. My interpretation will not be yours, so give it a try if you are curious what "Sunlight" will do for you.
I think I will listen again another night.
