While I do think it is good even without that connection, I cannot say this without any inkling of bias as I write this. Because of how easily I related to her, I immediately got into and loved this game’s plotline. I found myself constantly connected to and understanding of Madeline and her constant inner-struggle. As someone who suffers from depression and regular panic attacks, myself, I can’t say I’m completely unbiased with the story. There are themes and notions of all of these things across the entire game, and you see a physical representation of the two selves of someone with extreme anxiety and the battles they have to wage with themselves on a daily basis. The story of Celeste is a story about anxiety, depression, and those who deal with anxiety and panic attacks. Despite warnings from both an old lady living on the mountain and her own inner-voice, she ventures up the Mountain, unaware that the Mountain, itself, is about to put her through a fierce battle not only with the climb, but the demons inside her own mind. Here is my review of Celeste for the Nintendo Switch! StoryĬeleste revolves around the character of Madeline, a young anxiety-prone lady on a journey to climb up a mountain. Since I had some time between my Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Review and Gal Gun 2 and Kirby: Star Allies coming out later this week, I decided to dive into this platformer and see what the fuss was all about. The game is also something people have been asking me to review ever since it came out. Even before its release, I saw Nintendo Switch fans sharing IGN’s 10/10 review that the game received. A little indie game that combined platforming with tales of anxiety and won the hearts of gamers across the PC world, console world, and handheld world. Celeste is a name that is pretty big in the gaming world right now.
