Reviews for "Don't Kill the Cow"
I like how the guy turned green when we collect poo:)
Simple gameplay, nice story.
"I'm alergic to corn." - Lives on a friggin' corn farm.
Love the thought put it this game!
Killing your wife/daugther feels better than seeing YOU LOSE.
I don't really see this as a game, but more of an experience (like most small good indie games)
I like it!
3.5/5
If I was to get a meaning from this game, it would be about the meaning of ethics.
The man doesn't want to hurt his animals, refusing to kill any animal for any reason, but the wife needs to eat and cannot eat what he has farmer. In the end, the man can 'win' by staying by his ethics, but let his wife die. Or he can 'lose' by killing the cow, and the wife lives.
So the choice is basically; so you stand by your ethics or are you a slave to them. Are you willing to go against them to help the ones you love, or will you let them perish just because you won't budge? In a sense, it doesn't say ethics are bad, but it does point out how easily people can be overtaken by them. Willing to sacrifice something greater just to keep them.
