“There's an authenticity here, a rawness to its branching tale of daily efforts, and of faltering small steps forward, that neatly communicates a feeling of hopelessness, and sheer exhaustion.”
PC Gamer - Tom Sykes

About This Game

A Game About is a short, lo-fi (!), slice-of-life (!!), experimental (!!!) piece that recreates the crushing weight of living through the simplest routine. It's also a comedy point & click game.

Playtime should be around ten minutes. Tears - that may or may not be happy tears - should happen around the eight minutes and a half mark. I guarantee* at least two (2) good chuckles from playing the game.

Features:
  • Free
  • No IAPs
  • Absolutely free
  • Beautiful hand-drawn graphics
  • Branching Path Story
  • Achievements!

*Not an actual guarantee.
