Barcelona-based developer Nomada Studio announced on Twitter that its platformer Gris has sold over 1 million units.Gris launched on PC and Switch at the end of 2018, and a few months later had already sold 300,000 units had been sold (it eventually appeared on PS4 and mobile devices).

Gris won the Games for Impact at the Game Awards - come to think of it, you may remember that the award was presented by an actual Muppet - and was well received on Steam. It currently has 22,237 reviews, with overwhelmingly positive reviews, and is available for half price during Devolver Digital's weekend sale.

If you prefer a more sober view, our reviewer noted that its beautiful art style can sometimes get in the way of exploring grief. It is too tied up with the idea of a neat conclusion. It is so caught up in the language of repeated motifs and visual continuity that it seems oblivious when the emotional arc loses clarity and continuity."
