Well Done
This a game i can get behind. It's full of secrets and everything. What more could i want. But it's easy to get loss though. Other than that you get a 10 out of 10. Simply because I can't stop playing.
Reviews for "Looming"
Took roughly 2 hours
I'm a bit of a completion-ist. Once I get started, I need to be sorely pissed off to stop. I nearly did in my search for the final Lorem tablet. But I searched via a grid system and found everything in the game- all 9 endings, included. The simple origins of the game's idea are confounding in nature- but no more confounding then when I envisioned an entire novel's plot in the process of eating some noodles.
Getting past my prior ramblings, this game is a rare and... shall I say, "obscure" piece. It's intricate, detailed, philosophic, hypothetical, theoretical, psychological, sociological, and surreal. It reminds me intimately of the town Silent Hill- not so much the games as strictly the town. Dark, dismal, empty, yet so full of detail.
In a way, this game is kind of a hell, but in some ways it is no less than a Shangri-La. And reading those notes... it's deeply satisfying. An actual prize for totality, as opposed to the simple "100% completion" that gives little to no reward.
It was a fairly simple piece, and it was definitely a source of eye strain, but two hours later, I can go to sleep peacefully and consider this a piece of art and a piece of entertainment- an increasingly rare statement in an increasingly dull and unoriginal world.
eh, didnt really give the game a chance
the first 5 minutes were too boring and didnt grab my attention, sorry. im sure it is great though. just gotta give it a chance. also your author's comments are hilarious. :) so ill give you a 10 because i am a nice person!
