Tailypo

Tailypo is an old folk tale told around campfires, about a person driven to excesses by hunger and the consequences of their actions.

This game is the quintessential Sub-Q game, with an emphasis on styling, formatting, dense & high quality writing, and short playthrough. There are also sounds.

For me, the text swung back and forth between the frightening and the silly. This is, however, present in the original tale. The writing here was most compelling when describing the hopelessness of the protagonist, and when describing the dogs.
