Night in the Woods is a coming of age story that is blisteringly gorgeous in its narrative presentation. I love how the game shows our socio-economic and political angst, our mundane and monotonous lives, our need for structure and stability, older generations' clinging onto their older times, and depiction of Mae's serious mental health issues. In the end, the game teaches us how we should come to terms with our past and embrace the now, looking forward for hope and beauty with the connections we make around ourselves.
