I don't think I've played a game more prescient and pointed in a long time. Umurangi has so much to say, about fascism, art, apocalypses, the overwhelming sense of doom and the tiny tiny joys within, and does it all wordlessly and powerfully. As a mediocre creative myself, the photography is a good reminder to take joy in the things you make with your friends, but also a firm hand to point out that it alone will not save anyone.

The Macro DLC especially hits hard, replicating a feeling that i've had all too much these days, Its melancholic doom worn away revealing a white hot rage beneath. Umurangi Generation is Angry about the world, and so am I.
