I just finished my first "write-through" of Host and I enjoyed it immensely! Not only was it an extremely unique plot but the way the events are set up made for exciting storytelling. 

This is the second solo journaling game I've ever played, and I cannot wait to do another run-through of it again in the future. I ended up journaling from the point of view of a young teenager so my first event was glossed over by her completely as "global warming or whatever", because the school dance was coming up and that was more important than whatever those boring science people were saying on the television. 

A Journaling game to spend a few hours with. I highly recommend it to anyone even remotely considering it!

Thank you so much for the feedback! It's especially interesting to hear about a playthrough where the first event gets brushed off - I experience that a fair bit with the smaller scale events, but I had never thought to approach one of the large scale ones that way. The tension of knowing what's going on as the player while your character is in the dark is always a good time, so I'll be keeping that in mind to see if I run into the potential for similar experiences the next time I play.

Please let me know how it goes the next time you play - I always love to hear about folks' experience with it. Have fun!
