une histoire forte, March 10, 2024

A l'occasion de l'enterrement d'un grand père que la protagoniste n'a jamais rencontré et au passé franquistes. C'est l'occasion de revoir certains membres de la famille avec laquelle le personnage a coupé les ponts.

Les sensations ne sont pas agréable, mais tout est bien mené. Une bonne histoire pour ne pas totalement oublier l'Histoire...

A powerful story of coming back for a funeral, and of post-Franco Spain, March 9, 2024

This game is set in Spain but written in French. It's a powerful story; it made me glad that I still play interactive fiction, because I wouldn't have experienced this excellent story otherwise.

You play as a young man (I believe) who arrives at the funeral of his grandfather. However, you have decidedly unkind memories of your grandfather, who was part of Franco's army and committed numerous atrocities.

The story unfolds as you run into your family, deal with their awkward situations, talk to your partner, attend the funeral, or maybe not do a lot of these things; after all, there are several paths.

The only thing missing, I felt, could have been a little more personalization in the graphical presentation, or perhaps some more involved interactions. But the story is very well done, one of my favorite of the year so far.
