Okay, not an April Fools’ joke, I didn’t think the game would be that short.
I had the impression this was a small point and click - it is not! It’s a visual novel (or ‘audio-visual novella’, as the game pompously asserts itself) and it’s stupid short and… very…
Well, it’s there. I’ve read gripping microfiction (check out the twitter account QuietPineTrees for unsettling universes all contained into 140 characters) and this ain’t it.
Want a literal 15-minute 100%? Can you tolerate noir at its most stereotypical? Are you in the mood to play something that will have you go ‘… okay.’? There’s always the Monster Inside. I’m glad it’s free.
Next up: In the middle of the spectrum between Orwell and A Normal Lost Phone
See you soon!
Be interested to hear what you think of replica. I added it to my account, but I’m not really a horror fan, so you’ll have to tell us if it’s more horror or just thriller. It’s hard to gauge from the tags on steam what a game will be like.
