🚂 First Impressions: You are a Bird
Jan. 7th, 2026 06:44 pmFirst Impressions: You are a bird
What is it?
A short journaling game in which you are a bird carrying something heavy. There are 14 prompts like ‘Something here is terrifying. Why do you look back as you flee?’
Is it playable out of the box?
Can you follow the instructions? Yes. Is it a game? I’m not sure.
Amendments:
n/a
Tools
A storytelling medium like writing. There are instructions on how to fold the pages.
Price:
$ 3.33 (community copies available)
Verdict
🚂 Honourably Retired. ‘Honourably’ because I read the whole thing; it is benign, and someone might get fun out of it.
This is a pure journalling exercise with some mildly interesting prompts (and some that are not); I don’t think there’s much replay value (you get the prompts in a specific order) and, well, that’s all there is, you answer a few prompts and the thing is over. This is very lightweight indeed.
