It Gets Under Your Skin, November 29, 2025
by J. J. Guest (London, England)
Related reviews: ECTOCOMP 2025

I enjoyed this short vignette in which you play a man who needs to get dressed before answering the door to some trick-or-treaters. The player character is well characterised despite the brevity of the piece. He's middle-aged and a little finicky and he seems (Spoiler - click to show)to take a ghoulish delight in wearing the clothes of a dead man. This is one of those games that didn't make a huge impression on me when I first played it, yet I found myself still thinking about it a few hours later. It sort of gets under your skin.

Short parser game about getting ready for trick-or-treaters, December 1, 2025
Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

This is a brief parser game that appears mundane before throwing a twist at the player.

You are in an apartment and can hear trick or treaters outside. But you're not dressed! A pile of clothes lie on the floor, which you must assemble in the correct order.

The game felt well-implemented and the twist was quickly resolved. This was a delight to play, especially in a large competition with tons of long games: just a short burst of concentrated playtime with a big punch.
