Reviews

“what is hidden away inside Selfie: Sisters of the Amniotic Lens, behind its oddity and ritualistic front, is something beautiful and (I dare to say) new to videogames.”
Kill screen daily

“This is unprecedented in gaming. People baring their very souls to the world, and receiving selfless love and kindness in return. It’s a virtual paradise in an environment increasingly filled with negativity and outright evil.”
Videogames and the Bible

“it's a beautifully liberating act to free your sins to the universe of Rail Slave Games' evocative work.”
