Critters for Sale
Posted: 5 Nov 2021, 09:49
"This unique anthology of retro-styled 1-bit adventures pays off with an abundance of nightmare weirdness and deeply unsettling ambience."
The Good:
Minimalistic design, surreal narrative, beautifully unsettling soundtrack and subtly threatening imagery combine to perfectly replicate the feel of a nightmare
Writing successfully balances horror and humor in creative and unexpected ways
Hints at a larger story playing out behind the scenes are parsed out in a tantalizing way
Truly unlike anything else out there
The Bad:
So overwhelmingly strange that some will likely find it impenetrable
Several puzzles require knowledge found in other chapters, despite assertion that they can be played in any order
Our Verdict:
Critters for Sale is a captivating and almost unspeakably bizarre journey into black-and-white hell that you’ll have to play to comprehend. It won’t be for everyone, but those willing to take the plunge will find themselves mesmerized by an experience like none they’ve had before.
