teeheeRi rated The Tale of the ADHD Dinosaur

teeheeRi rated a game 3 years ago
A browser game made in HTML5.

I like the idea of the game. I do wish it went into further details about ADHD. I understand the message it's making but wish it did more. I do like it though. It gets confusing very fast. That's a shitload of information that gets discombobulated in the ADHD dinosaur's head. I like that the scenery changes on you when you don't expect it. I'm guessing that's to parallel the getting distracted/lost on the original task at hand.  The things changing once you have gotten the seemingly correct item, I would guess is about how even if you think something's simple it's easy to be confused which leads to getting the task wrong and others wondering why you're struggling with a "simple" task. I do feel that the other characters berating you for not doing something "simple" in the time they would like it to be done is relatable. I feel that is parallel to the shame that can come with failing a "easy" task. I like what this game is doing. I do wish it had more, but for what it is, I like it. I think it shines a light of some common ADHD problems. I appreciate that as someone who was diagnosed with ADHD a while back.
