Juego muy extraño y raro. Tiene diálogos y escenas muy buenas, pero no me he enterado de mucho.
Amazing game that feels all too familiar- feels like its documenting the lore of your local town and its troubled residents. really cool meta gameplay. want to replay soon.
This game looks terrible but it’s a great story. Trust me. Fun little minigames. The most shocking minigame I’ve ever experienced. Most if not all of its stories are rooted in an actual town's stories. They play a live interview each time you find a new message in a bottle.
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world below
There's no sickness, no toil or danger
In that bright land to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
And all my loved ones, who've gone on
I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is hard and steep
Yet beauteous fields arise before me
Where God's redeemed their vigils keep
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
So i'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home
I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home

Really fantastic storytelling that really captures the energy of folk stories and their particular magic. Maintains a really specific metatextuality that ties the reality of the stories in the game to their actual sources from life, often dealing with tragedy and traumas deeply personal to the storytellers. It captures the deep, wide breadth of feelings in folk life, and it does so with a deeply charming aesthetic.
Not sure if this is good because I could not get past the art style/walking animation.
