 Some ideas about language untethered to story, September 9, 2018This is a game about forming words and the nature of language. You can flick through clusters of syllables to form nigh unpronounceable words which later form the names of languages and places. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment

A game about language and its intrinsic meaning, November 16, 2017This game is centered around a language or collection of languages that the protagonist is trying to study. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
by sushabye Presents the concept that people's thoughts can be shaped by their language. Yes, its the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis as seen in the 2016 film "Arrival". So, what cool narrative does this game wrap around the central idea? Well, none. It simply presents a variation of that idea, gives you some clickable links to play with, and sits back. Job done? Not for me. It needed more than just some nice mock-19th century writing to engage me. A beginning, middle and end would help. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
