The best way I can think of to describe it is using music as a metaphor. The story of this game is great, but not in the same way that the story of the Dark Souls and Witcher series was good. The observatory, where the adventure begins. Following these signs, he used his suit and some upgrades he found on the way to pursue Fred in this otherworldly place. In that strange new world, he found signs of Fred’s recent presence, and deduced that Fred was there.

Curiosity got the better of him, and he activated the pad, which sent him flying into a strange new world. After donning the suit, the protagonist headed off to the observatory, where a prototype garbage disposal pad was held. The back-and-forth between the two during the game’s downtime fills us in on the story and some details on the protagonist’s relationship with Fred.Īfter looking around, he found an adventure suit, and the suit, quote “fit like it had been custom-made for me”, “me” being the protagonist. Throughout the story, the grown-up protagonist serves as the narrator and the daughter is the audience surrogate. His uncle, Fred, had not been keeping in touch with the protagonist for quite some time, and he was getting worried. He told her a tale of him, as a boy, looking around in his uncle’s house when he had gone on an adventure. The story starts off with the narrator, which is our protagonist as a grown man, telling a bedtime story to his daughter. If that name seems familiar, it’s because they are also the developers for Goat Simulator. It was a nice indie game by Gone North Games that deserves getting a look at. Recently, I saw it again while looking through my Steam library for something to play (I know I know, first world problems), replayed it, and recalled how good it was. I got it as a gift from my IRL friend for Christmas (I think, it’s been some time), and I spent a fair bit of time playing around when I got it. I can’t remembered how I first came across this game. It was ended by Mannpower Mode in TF2, but before that I was still looking for games to scratch that grappling hook itch.

After playing Just Cause 2, I had a bit of a grappling hook addiction.
