Intense surreal horror, May 8, 2019

You can probably infer from the tags that this is not quite what it appears to be. What results is a David Cronenberg-esque bit of the bizarre with well-composed, clear, descriptive writing that explains enough to paint the scene but conceals enough to maintain an atmosphere. I rather like the touch of the final results screen to give you a clearer idea of what to aim for on replays. Though it's not as massively weird as the likes of "Mastaba Snoopy", it's similar in topic, with a sort of thin pop-culture veneer draped over a nightmarish world. In the end, depending on what you learn, the surrealty does tone down a bit as the setting crystalizes into something half-sensical, if still quite a sharp left turn from being arguably based on Star Wars.

(Spoiler - click to show)It's hard for me to say no to a game that includes the phrase "You fight the instinct to impregnate Han Solo."
