Does Alan get hit by a van while jogging, or just do shitton of coke? I need to know what era of King we are dealing with here.

you play a douchebag author that hates his own celebrity so the first diner he goes into has a cardboard standee of him sitting in plain sight.

Spoiler ending then is when he finds coke and doesn’t remember writing Cujo then?

There are allusions to parties and angry inanimate objects are regular obstacles so it’s a bit both columns.

Oh and the weird moonshine scene.

maybe he doesn’t hate his celebrity so much as secretly feel it’s undeserved, since, if the writing of the game is actually aware of itself (unlikely, this is just me talking), he’s a fucking awful writer. The collectible manuscript is atrociously bland.
