Thirty Flights of Loving is a short first-person story about a trio of criminals and a heist gone wrong. The game presents its events in fragments rather than following a straightforward timeline.
Move through compact environments, observe characters and surroundings, and occasionally interact with objects. Sparse gameplay leaves the scene changes and visual details to carry much of the story, inviting you to piece together what happened.
The package also includes Gravity Bone, a prequel, and developer commentary for Thirty Flights of Loving. The commentary offers another way to revisit the game and explore how it was made.
Players who enjoy the game often point to its fragmented, cinematic storytelling, distinctive scene editing, and stylized presentation; some also value the developer commentary for added insight into its creation. Others find the story hard to follow or the sparse interaction unsatisfying, and many reviews emphasize how brief the experience is, with some questioning its price.
Explore the world of Thirty Flights of Loving in this first-person short story. Encounter high-flying schemers, lovelorn criminals, and more stray kittens than you can shake a stick at. Saddle up, gunslinger.
