Gone Home

I know this is a Sims blog, and I intend to post mostly Sims things, but from time to time, when I play a good enough game, I will be posting about that as well. This is one of those times.

My ex has told me about a game called Gone Home, and he told me that it was really sad and made him cry like a baby. I have always been a sucker for sad or heart-wrenching movies, games, book, etc. so I had it in my mind that I wanted to play it.

Again, I had seen it on some sites saying that it was a great game, so I decided to finally try it out, and I have to say, it was an incredible game.

It's not so much a game as it is an interactive story, really. You explore your empty home after returning from a trip across the world and a story begins to unravel, told through journal pages that your sister has written for you.

I highly recommend it if you have the time. There is no fighting and no scares or anything, it's just an exploration game with a deep story-line that gets pieced together as you go. The graphics are beautiful and the controls are great, the voices are lovely and it's incredibly clever. It doesn't take too long to finish.

You can find the game from Steam, or here. Not to mention, there are ways for you to get it free, if you have the means of doing so...Although I'm not going to go into that because...well...yeah. Have fun, guys. Enjoy.

Ad of course some images. Just look at those graphics...
