Shelter is a sobering tale about what it means to be a mother. I can't claim to really know what a mother goes through every day, but if it's half as stressful, rewarding, saddening, and glorious as Shelter portrays it to be... I want to say a quick thank you to mothers everywhere. You're doing a wonderful job. And I think I'm going to call my mom real quick, just to tell her I love her. This game is about 75 minutes long. If you're able, I really think playing it with your mother would be a great bonding experience.
