| HIKEBACK | 4/10/26 | An absolutely lovely and short game. It hooked me from the start. Timeloops are always such a fun thing to explore, and I feel like this game does an amazing job at portraying the feeling of being helplessly stuck in a loop, doing the same things over and over, small things changing every time, making you question if that was what happened last time or something new entirely, and what that means for the upcoming route. I also absolutely adore both of our protagonists, and I find their lack of context and backstory even more enticing. The way we get to gradually learn and unravel things about them as the timeloops progress... Chefs kiss! I love it. I love the Nurture ending so much, too. The Hiker was stubborn in his conditioned belief that killing was in his nature, but as The Driver guided [nurtured] [hohoho] him, he, for the first time likely ever, used his power for a good, selfless reason. Something I'm sure he never even considered doing, or considered possible. It goes to show how much kind actions loop back around to you. I also sincerely love the overall message (or, well, one of them, at least) - So long as your alive, there is hope. Even if you're bloodied, bruised, beaten, and battered, there will always be hope. Amazing little VN. | 8/10 | |
| Assassin's Creed II | 4/10-?/26 | Still playing, but this game was one of my favorites as a really young kid. So much so that I told my preschool teacher my father was an assassin because I thought it was so cool hahaha. It's been amazing getting to revisit it, though the PC controls kind of suck. Will update when I finish! | ?/10 | |
