Update Two Hundred and Twenty-Nine: 13 September 2018

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Short game gets a short review:

A very short game that nonetheless feels much longer than it is, EMPORIUM leaves much to be desired. It has some eerie imagery aaaaand not much else to back it up. Each playthrough maybe takes 20 minutes (I left it idle bc of course I did to finish the Great British Bake Off finale. Go, Sophie!) but beyond some text changes that don’t really mean anything, it’s the same.

It’s very underwhelming. No more playing games about depressed dudes who end up killing themselves. How boring.

Next up: This was a gift from SG user Va3Victus after we had a pleasant, supportive interaction on the SG forums. It surprised me and made my day. Finally I’m playing it!

See you soon!
