( Game Description )
I’m tired to the bone. I had all the life sucked out of me: here’s a bunch of words on a page (some missing in a mock blackout) and it appears that the game the creator envisions has nothing to do with the game I’ve caught glimpses of while reading the rules.
Indie game makers: will you please make a whole game? And then give it to someone who has never seen your game before and ask them to play it and take notes what they find clear and what they don’t? I’m no longer completely new to solo space, though I still have a literal mind.
I can’t make sense of this, I can’t make a _game_ of this, and at this point, I’m too pissed off to invest more time and try harder. Somewhere in here is an interesting game. I haven’t found it, and I will no longer try.
