25 of 25 · most liked firstRevealed — a VR game by Nyamyam (of Astrologaster fame), co-written by me! My first VR credit, and it uses live actors filmed in 3D throughout which is very cool. (I got to direct the performances for the demo version which was great fun)

unlabelledView post →Firewatch (but mention of past death). Untitled Goose Game if animals are okay. Inkle Studio games come to mind, particularly Expelled, though I haven’t completed it yet so I can’t be certain. Haven’t played yet but maybe Astrologaster (if historical counts) Cozy, mystery, walk sims, The Sims…

unlabelledView post →Just one game bought in the Steam sale so far: Astrologaster! It’s 70% off and looks like so much fun (plus it’s set in Shakespeare’s London, and as a history nerd this is perfect for me 😅). So, what have you been snapping up?

unlabelledView post →Picked up Nyamyam's Astrologaster as part of Steam's Women's Day Sale. There are bawdy madrigals by Andrea Boccadoro after each level. Genuinely hilarious. This might be making an appearance when I teach madrigals next in Western Music from Hildegard to Haydn. store.steampowered.com/app/742520/A...
unlabelledView post →TOEM a photo adventure is absolutely lovely and has a similar vibe as A short hike. And I liked The untitled goose game evermore than Thank goodness. If you are opened to a equally silly but very stylewise different game, Later Alligator and Astrologaster are great!

unlabelledView post →Yesterday I found a little time to sample this week's #RandomBacklogSampler game, ASTROLOGASTER, a very charming, somewhat ribald narrative game which features true history, original madrigals, quack science, and some excellent gags. And the whole UI is themed like a pop-up book? Fabulous.

unlabelledView post →Mini Metro. Puzzle game that is on PC, but on mobile as well. Astrologaster. a Tudor musical-comedy medical investigation! I think a lot of games require the build up of intuition from familiarity when it comes to mechanics or expectations of play so I think mechanically simple is better for novice

unlabelledView post →Other than Astrologaster, the ones I’ve managed to find are Hampton Court, and an old Tudors tv series find the item game. I think the monarchs are briefly mentioned in Civ and/or Crusader Kings, but I’m surprised there isn’t more about them!

unlabelledView post →I'm not at home today to do #randomgamesaturday so instead I'll pick a random title from my Steam library: Astrologaster! A goofy game using real historical figures for comedy, you play as a doctor who interprets the stars to advise his patients. Has a kind of Blackadder sense of humour
