"Let me state that without my notes Shade's text simply has no human reality at all ... For better or for worse, it is the commentator who has the last word" ~ Nabokov, Pale Fire.
A fascinating game with a good portion of the wit and metatextual verve of its inspiration occluded subject, Like Skyscrapers Blotting Out The Sun is an impressive feat of visual and ludic design, about which very few quibbles critical comments can be made*. The good humor with which it approaches its subject, as well as the layout and structure of the game as an object, recommends it to anyone interested in playing games with literary concepts.
*The author uses 'speculative' as the general term for fiction of the estranged, terminology I personally abjure for theoretical reasons; this is unlikely to bother anyone who has not thoroughly dissolved their good sense in the heady draught of Suvin, Freedman, and Chu.
