'The Room' of video games. A game that yearns to creep you out and tell a riveting story turns into a comedy of errors as the absolute worst protagonist in gaming bumbles his way through a lynchian 'whodunit' murder mystery. If there are so-bad-it's-good games, this takes the cake.

Need me a freak like Rita 😩😩😩

A wonderful experience through and through, that you don't have to beat: but I hope you do. This game feels very relevant to life if you look in the right places. More on to that previous point I think it shows insight that is really un-intuitive and is hard to process outside of media.

While certainly I don't have darkworld counterparts I do believe that people act as though we have a darkworld, and that agency is something more something to play fast and loose.

As almost a hard line derterminist I of course disagree but this world navigates that assume very well.

This game truly has to be seen to be believed, and I mean that in both the best and worst way possible. Step aside Deadly Premonition: Darkseed 2 is actually the most amazingly incoherent Twin Peaks ripoff ever made by a video game developer, and it's legitimately quite creative in parts. I do not recommend playing this game for yourself, as its puzzles are complete nonsense, but watching somebody else play it is a guaranteed good time.
