unlabelledView post →Oof, that's a tough one! While I can be critical it's very rare I full on regret a game... I'd prob'ly say the most recent disappointment was American Arcadia, but really just the ending ruined it for me. The overall game is excellent, but yeah, they straight up bailed on the narrative in the end. 😕

unlabelledView post →If you like interesting game experiences, I can thoroughly recommend American Arcadia. Essentially Truman Show meets the Running Man, it's not perfect - some irritating gameplay elements reminding me of "Another World" - but it's a fun six hour romp and the seventies aesthetic is *gorgeous*.

unlabelledView post →10. American Arcadia A lovely birthday gift from @sugarcomatosed.bsky.social that I finally finished, it’s an EXTREMELY me game. What if the Truman Show was about a 70s paranoia thriller? Love the conclusion it reached, interesting sticky answer to its questions. Absolutely loved it
unlabelledView post →Played through American Arcadia today! I can certainly see why it was considered game of the year when it was released. I've never played a game that included first, third, and second person perspectives all within a single narrative. Oh and the story? AMAZING.

unlabelledView post →I think the dog mascot character from American Arcadia is really cute, definitely one of the reasons among many that I like that game
unlabelledView post →1. American Arcadia Great art style and vibe. Reminds me a bit of PlayDead/PlayDead Adjacent games (Limbo, Inside, Sommervile). Really interesting interplay of going from a 2D platformer into a FPS Puzzle game back and forth between the two main characters.
unlabelledView post →Played this, loved it... noticed that their last game American Arcadia came out on consoles a year ago and I somehow missed it... so I'm playing it and loving it too. I say "somehow"... it was around the time I got laid off 🙃
