Steam reviews
What players say
Players overwhelmingly recommend this cooperative walk-and-puzzle game for its shared moments with friends, though voice volume and desync problems frustrate many.
Many players describe Big Walk as a cooperative exploration game about talking, wandering and solving puzzles together, and praise how it turns ordinary time with friends into lasting memories. Players single out the atmosphere, the scenery, the sound design and the ending, which many call deeply emotional. Some players, especially those who play with groups of three or more, say it gets better as more people join. Common complaints are the proximity voice chat, which is too quiet for some players and cuts out at a distance, the lack of a separate voice and game audio slider, and occasional desync and performance issues. Several reviews from the last year mention a missing autosave that cost them hours after a crash. Recent reviews are more mixed in tone, with a few players finding the walking dull and the puzzles simple, but most still recommend it.
Praised
- Shared moments with friends

Many players - Atmosphere and scenery
Players praise the beautiful scenery, the sounds and the relaxed, wonder-filled mood of the island.
Many players - Puzzles that reward teamwork
Reviewers enjoy puzzles that need communication and creative solutions, and say the game introduces mechanics gradually.
Many players - A strong, emotional ending

Some players
Criticised
- Voice volume and audio sliders
Reviewers say voice chat is too quiet, cuts out at distance, and that there is no separate slider for voice and game audio.
Many players - Desync and performance issues
Players report desync, lag during heavy loads, low render distance and launch problems on some systems.
Some players - Publisher's Xbox and platform decisions
Some negative reviews object to the studio's choice of platforms and its business and political stance, which has nothing to do with the game itself.
A few players
- Who it suits
- Players who enjoy talking and exploring with friends, especially in groups of three or more, and who like relaxed co-op puzzles.
- Who should skip it
- Players who want constant action or quick rewards, or who need strong audio controls and a stable online experience to enjoy co-op.
Short vs. long playtime: Players with longer playtimes tend to report more group sessions and more emotional attachment, while many short-session reviews focus on voice and audio problems.

Big Walk is one of those rare games that feels like a social good: it mends the small cracks in friendships with sunlight, silliness and the occasional flare.
