dr0gulus rated Stumbling upon meaning in an old town abandoned to its fate

dr0gulus rated a game 3 years ago
A browser game made in HTML5.

Played this after being recommended by truesque, and was completely captivated. It reminded me a lot of playing Her Story, although the text-based approach lets you do some very interesting things that Her Story couldn't. Truesque and I talked about it for a while after I played. One thing we both really liked was how a seemingly innocuous word could hide something very unexpected and shocking. The way that the years could be used to structure the story you are uncovering was very clever, I ended up saving each year I found as a reference point. Very very cool.

After playing this, I then got Truesque to play Her Story. The cycle has come to a close.
