Short, interesting read about taking the unconventional route, March 22, 2018An introspective story with a twist ending. The message I got from this narrative (depending on the ending) was that taking the road less traveled may lead to happiness.
The author's understanding of Japanese culture mixed with photos of Japanese streets creates a sense of authenticity and immersion.
An intriguing short story about a missing woman in Japan, September 19, 2018I played this game because it has been one of the most-rated games this year. It's a short-to-mid-length Twine game set in Japan with three endings.
I gave this game/story 5 stars based on my criteria:
-Polish. The writing is smooth, the images add to the story, and the structure seems thought-out.
-Interactivity. I wanted to pursue the main thread of the story but feel like I had some investment. This game is fairly linear and branches in some "do you want to win or not win?" kind of ways. But it worked for me.
-Descriptive writing. This story is vivid and very descriptive.
-Emotional impact. I found the story effective from two angles: one about a man showing concern for a fellow human, and another angle where the protagonist is a deeply concerning example of a man believing that he has the privilege to become obsessed with and interfere with a woman's life.
-I would play this again.
Great story, March 27, 2018I really enjoyed the story and how it evolves. The photographs were a nice touch. I did feel though that there should be a follow on to this game, Lost & Found 2?
