The Flame in the Flood
Aug. 19th, 2021 07:04 pmHello and welcome to an "I bought this game on Switch because I had a giftcard balance, the game was on sale, and the cover was pleasing to my eye" post! I didn't even read a DESCRIPTION of this one before I bought it, what a lawless way to live. I only have three more of these reckless-ass purchases left in my backlog, though, so...progress?
Anyway turns out The Flame in the Flood is a ROGUELIKE SURVIVAL ADVENTURE GAME, a series of words I can't believe I understand. I have gallantly avoided spoiling the story, which was very easy, because the story is nonexistent. Okay JK I will probably leave some spoiler space and then LOL about the ending but whatever. Umm there are a lot of mechanical spoilers for a game where part of the experience is figuring out this shit via trial and error but I doubt anyone is playing this. It was good! If you want to play it! Not a hard rec but I found the game satisfying and the soundtrack slaps!
( to find closure in the wake of disaster / oh, to find saviors in the wake of the water )
