Yeah, I'll have to try it modded at some point!
Buddy Simulator 1984 - 8/10
I really like this - at first I was eh on one of sections because I wasn't in mood for it but it was short enough that I didn't mind it in the end. Does getr really creepy and can be uncomfortable in places (especially on 'bad' ending / bonus ending) but that was the point of the game and I've glad I gave it a chance.
Parasocial - 6/10
Another walking simulator that I really like the vibe of, but I'll admit I think I'm too dumb to understand what's going on. I get some ideas here and there, but I still don't know the whole picture yet. I don't really like some of sections where you were driving because all you do is just... drive. I guess there's radio, but that has no captions so it was empty gameplay for me and there's 3 sections of it which brings score down. Otherwise it's good enough for me to see all way to end / went for another playthrough to get all achievements on Steam.
Hypnospace Outlaw - 9/10
I won't lie, first time I played through it I was frustated at it than having fun with it, even with guide on. But on second playthrough (as I missed doing one thing) I actually took my time, going through everything and was really getting into it.
Deffo one to take your time with - it feels like I'm there in late 1990s internet, even though I never got online until early 2000s. The story is also nicely wrapped up, some grim things though. But I'm glad I played this one.
Saint Maker - 7/10
Same developers of The Letter (one of my favourite Visual Novels) - so I was happy they made another horror VN (They made other games that was.. well, more sexual in natrue and when there's nothing wrong with that I have no interest in them unless its M/M focused). It's not good as The Letter, but what it does made for really good reading through. Though it does remind me why I dislike religion in general, haha. It's very linear in sense choices don't really matter - no branching paths or anything like that. But I think for what is essentally short visual novel it does the job rather nicely.
