My Reviews

Excellent game that wears its Disco Elysium inspiration like a badge of honor. In some ways, I actually prefer this game to Disco, which sounds like sacrilege. Where Disco's humor is dry and the writing and outlook generally cynical (in a good way), there are legitimate laugh-out-loud moments in Esoteric

Cairn is one of those special games that, while I enjoy the moment-to-moment gameplay, it doesn't generally align with my preferred gaming mechanics. I've never been big into physics-based gameplay. In my experience it's often frustrating to play games with such a thin margin of error (think: Bennett Foddy games).
