Horace is a visual poetry, a precious story about the human being. A pixelated work that tells us about existence of the human being and of the universe. A deep and captivating game that not only dares with real philosophical themes, but that is also a simple and straightforward story with unpretentious gameplay and that has an enviable design that makes it the best platforms game of 2019 (For the writer and for anyone who has some artistic sensibility).

Horace is presented with a marked pixel aesthetic. In the narrative scenes the camera will make huge zooms that make Horace a modern work of art, at times it is beautiful and figurative and, on other occasions, after the zoom, the camera approaches the action so much that we almost stop distinguishing the figures and we can enjoy the beauty of the digital pixels.

A metaphor for the chaos that occurs in the mind of our protagonist, sometimes overcome and troubled by the teachings of life and his mentor.

Horace is surprised to deal with such deep issues and in such a sincere and clear way. His universe seeks on more than one occasion to be related to the universes of writer Douglas Adams, creator of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."

This title is above all a great platforms game with a huge variety of situations and that will not bore the player.
