Number three, Canvas Keepsakes
Plot Deconstruction: The paintings that you draw bring deadly creatures to life. And that’s cool and all, but did you know that you have an Artifex cat? In this game, you try your best to avoid a terrible outcome once you’re approached by a mysterious buyer that wants to own your artwork. It seems that there might be nefarious plans afoot… Can you save yourself from what they have in store for you?
Positives: I really liked how this story was written! The prose was simple and yet so descriptive. I felt like I was walking through the story inside the protagonist’s shoes. I especially enjoyed how expressive the characters were and how fun and full of banter their lives seemed to be. I enjoyed the ride and this game’s atmosphere all the way through and gave them all voices as I explored the story. The concept was very interesting as well and I really enjoyed how it was tackled.
My Questions/Notes:
