Games You Played Today: 13 Going On 30

i can’t remember if i wrote up this game or not when i played it last year but i really liked it personally! i was not bothered about it not being “game-like” enough. but i also like RPG Maker horror and walking sims, so i’m just generally not bothered by that. i thought it was neat to have something that felt like J horror mixed with “new French extremity” cinema from the turn of the century exist in game form, and i feel like it did enough to justify being a game personally. i also found the game’s psychological exploration a lot more interesting than you and didn’t just think it was just 101 feminism, but to each their own. the narrative probably isn’t as open-ended as people would hope for expect and there is sorta one clear bad guy at the end, but i wasn’t personally disappointed by that aspect of things. in general it felt like a much more coherent and (to me) memorable experience than something like Mouthwashing, which i played around the same period of time last year.

seems like @wourme did make a thread about it a couple of years back
