The main character of this game seems to be afraid of being alone in silence with herself. Or she may be afraid that you will be alone in silence with yourself. That’s why she speaks. Constantly. Without shutting up. And she’s a teenager, which means she’s all edgy, with a sharp tongue, against the whole world, you know.
So, in this game there is a level in the sewer, and one of the passages is blocked by sewage flowing down. And the main character, Little Red Riding Hood, sees this nuisance and says: “Cut the crap! I mean it!”
And in this game there is a level where you need to jump on platforms. The platforms on this level are pieces of earth and rocks floating in the air, some of them move there from side to side on their own. And the main character jumps onto one such piece of rock, flies up on it and then says: “Thanks for the ride! You rock!”
I love terrible puns, but there’s a limit to everything.
It’s okay. But, I must note, collectively translating the leaked pre-release build and arguing about whose version of the phrase was better was more fun than actually playing the game.

That’s how you know the devs are ESL… and I say this as an ESL pun lover myself.
Also, looking forward to see what you think about Pillars of the Earth :D
Nice reviews! Your review for Woolfe - The Red Hood Diaries gave me a good laugh. You have some good games in your added list! Enjoy!
Wow, some really nice games added to the backlog:
I picked up Woolfe - The Red Hood Diaries back when it was bundled in 2015, and played it a little to farm cards, but it was about the time I started being a completionist, so I stopped when I was about to get the first achievement. :(
And after that I went on to do the story and side quests, and soon I got really bored, so I abandoned the game. Let’s see what happens in the new playthrough.
That is the best description of a first experience in Skyrim that I’ve ever heard. Bravo!
It turns out I’ve only played one game from Pendulo Studios before, so maybe I over-stated things. Still, I look forward to playing more of them.
I liked the second Costume Quest even more than the first. But they’re pretty similar.
I loved Morrowind so much, but part of that is because I’d just bought my first PC (after a lifetime of being a disgruntled Mac user) and I’d never played anything like it. It’s graphics, sound, and depth were just so novel.
