You've found some quirky, intriguing PC titles that have at least made me interested enough to read more about with this and The Cat Lady. If only I either had more time...or fewer games in my backlog, which is up to roughly 30 if you just count recent/modern gen systems (PS2, 360, Wii, 3DS).

I mean, just the way you described it, which was a very inventive way to essentially say the game does its best to defy logical description, makes me interested as hell.

I've been wanting to buy this game and give it a try and review it here. I was just waiting for a great Steam sale. Now I don't have an excuse to spend money on the game, since you've done such a good job of covering it. I may have to resort to buying it just for the heck of it...

Rob: I would heavily suggest that you make time, in your case especially for The Cat Lady. It might be a nice reminder for you about when horror games had, you know, horror in them. I guess its games like TCL and Stanley Parable that’s helped me turn my back on the console fare for now because there are so many creative titles that simply are not pretty or ‘mainstream’ enough to have console releases just falling through the cracks on the PC that it’s insane.

Thank you, all, of your kind words. I had a blast writing this one, but was a little worried it wouldn’t really work. You should still pick this up, Jason, and give it a review. It would be interesting to see how you would write about it. Link me in to yours, Ben. I’m sure it’s fine, but in case it’s not, I’m still bitter about FIFA and can use this as revenge fuel.

Oh! I forgot to say that this review is awesome.

This review is awesome.

Thank you, Suskie. I try.

This review IS awesome. I purchased based solely off of it. Well, and the trailer... but only because the trailer lived up to the review.

Very cool review, Gary. I'm looking to buy it now, thanks to you.

Thank you both. Do let me know how you get on with the game should you each pick it up.
