Review
This is a short, well-made Twine game in French with a few brief choices and at least 2 endings.
You play as someone who missed a train, so is driving on a trip and taking a passenger with them to split gas.
The game sets it up as a long journey, so I was surprised to see it was only a 1-hour trip! It reminded me of the saying, 'In America, 100 years is a long time. In Europe, 100 miles is a long distance'. And that's true; my commute every day is close to an hour both ways, and the same is true for many of my students, and that's just within my city (Dallas). Going to the next city to visit family can take 2 hours. To me a longer trip would be like our school's trips to nearby states that take 8 hours or so of driving.
Anyway, digression aside, there is tension in the game. Our passenger is strange, and his behavior uncertain. It reminds me of college, where two women who were friends of mine got a ride from my tall roommate who was mildly socially awkward. It was late at night and they were driving in a quiet area, and the roommate pulled out leather gloves from the glovebox and put them on. He had no idea that the girls were terrified that he was about to kill him; he just thought the gloves looked nice and were comfortable.
In any case, I enjoyed this story.
