What Critics Are Saying About The Novelist
IGN
Keza MacDonald
6.5 / 10
The Novelist is an interesting, minimalist study of family relationships undermined by a rather superficial narrative.

It's an interesting short experiment in narrative choices, then, but perhaps I'm just missing the point because I'm single, young, childless, and will never be able to afford that house. In any case, I really hope Mr Ghost gets to flip a table over one day or spew some food just once, because he's really earned it.

Seeing one character succeed at another's expense isn't exactly fun, but it results in some tough and thought-provoking decisions

The Novelist doesn't tell the most tightly constructed of stories, but the choices it forces you to make have real, affecting weight.
