9 Positive User Reviews for That Dragon, Cancer
That dragon, cancer.
One of the most important games I have ever played. Hits very close to home. I am great full for this artist. Thank you for your work?
I guess I never realized..
I guess I’ve never thought of how precious a life is to others..I couldn’t finish the game. I was in tears I just couldn’t finish it. I am so sorry for all the lives lost to cancer and I hope Young Joel’s game can show just how much we need to appreciate what we have
Wow
When people talk about the power of stories to build human connections, this is what they mean. What this shares is so intimate, so deep, so human that I am trembling.
Experimental fiction has been reaching out into the digital world for some time, but here we see something so earnest that it’s hard to give it that label. The pacing of the piece is expert.

I thank y’all for this game and showing people that sometimes we can’t escape reality the way we would like to. But instead we should embrace what life has been given to us. Than
Experience the suffering

Thank you.
Amazing, even after years I can’t stop thinking about this game
Even after years of first having played this game I really can’t get it out of my mind. This was really well put together and really created a heartful experience.
Emotionally challenging to get through
But life can be very challenging at times. Not really sure what else to say about this game… other than; to Amy & Ryan, thank you for sharing your’s and Joel’s story.

Not a navigation problem
I’m glad to see so many people loving this app if they did not have navigation problems. I could not get past the hospital part because it was too much of a trigger for some very bad times.
That dragon, cancer
This game started out so amazingly. A starkly sensitive portrayal of parents facing the death of a child. My daughter recently died from cancer…I could see all the false hope we had been given, and then the reality of impending loss. Unfortunately about half way through the entire experience became a sermon. What could have been an acknowledgment of the enduring hole out of order death leaves in its wake, and a portrait of the weight that must be carried; became instead, contemporary Christi
