Forevermore: A Game of Writing Horror — Stewart C Baker
This one was a cute, quick little run through. I had a good time with it- I mean, watching worms, delving deep and doubling down into the Gothic, being able to interact nicely and politely with NPCs: what’s not to love? Being able to ‘print’ a copy of the poem you wound up writing was very nice, and the updated text as you progressed in building your poem off to the side in a little page/book was a nice visual element.
I did not play through multiple times- as I was satisfied with the ending I achieved, (A Successful Draft,) but that there is an option for replay and it being such a small game that zipping through it quickly would be relatively painless, is really appealing with regards to interactivity. It being a slight game side steps the need for save reloading, which works in its favour.
Generally, a light, enjoyable game- perfect for squeezing in on a brief break. Bonus points for being about the Gothic.
