I remember this game really affecting me, particularly because I got a bad ending and didn’t realize it has multiple endings.
Highly recommended if you like adventure games.
The story it’s based on is, of course, fantastic too.
How did this game feel to others?
Loved this game! It’s also narrated by the original author.
I never knew that was the original author. The game and the book are just an awful (in a good way) experience that left me feeling so gross and hopeless after.
Harlan Ellison narrated the audiobook, and he hammed it up so much when delivering the AM lines (in a good way) that there was really no one else who could have voiced the role in the game by the time it was developed.
The best part about the game is that Ellison also wrote the script and dialogue for it.
I’m pretty sure that the game has a slightly different ending to the book, as well. I didn’t know he did both. Very few things have made me feel as uncomfortable and unsettled as the book/game.
Never played but read the wiki. Holy crap this sounds intense
Whenever i hear this line, it reminds me of some comic I saw years ago where people get sucked into a mountain and become monsters. Not sure why
This hole in my chest hurts like a sonofabitch.
I haven’t played the game, but it is a series that has been incredibly fascinating to me.
At least with the book, the thing that I find most haunting is the permanence of Ted’s body alterations. Your form being forever changed against your will is absolutely disturbing.
