OpenCritic reviews
As the final credits rolled The World Next Door felt like a satisfying experience on the whole but I was also left with questions...
A fantastic story and presentation makes The World Next Door worth taking a peek at. I just wish the gameplay could hold up as well as those aspects.
Although The World Next Door’s puzzles are fun, the real joy of the game is its cast of characters and its dialogue.
The World Next Door combines elements of a Puzzle Game, Visual Novel, and an RPG to tell the story of a girl named Jun trapped on the world of Emrys and needing to get home before she dies. Go through four acts with great puzzle-solving combat to discover the way to get Jun home!
The World Next Door implements a nice twist on match-3 puzzles for its combat system, and it presents an interesting world with a varied cast of characters.
