please play this. it's short and free. all it is is a very, very moving poem made into a game with beautiful sounds and visuals to accompany it. not pretentious at all, and it has an important message. :)

What if with each grain of sand we swallow... we wonder who devoured our brother's graves.... and we're both girls...

A beautifully rendered and startlingly effecting piece of interactive poetry dealing with the hazards of trying to pave over difficult histories and transgressions. Edible Place turns the necessary and indulgent process of eating into an act of quiet cultural demolition, confronting the player with the internal struggle of a perpetrator given no choice but to destroy, with their very moral core in the balance.

Extremely worth the 10 minutes you'll spend within its weavings.

Absolutely worth the 10-15 minutes it takes to experience. Less a game than an interactive poem, but it uses its medium to its advantage.

This game kinda blew me away. It's incredibly concise in its messaging, all of the enviroments are delicately crafted and the text passages are very well written. "The Indifferent Wonder of an Edible Place" is an amazing meditation on the destruction of cultures and... it's free! So please go play it!
