The Void

If you ever wanted something that gave you the feel of the Pathologic games in an eerily beautiful fantasy dreamscape, then The Void is the game for you. One of my friends refers to it as 'That collapsing afterlife goddess dating sim game' and I can't really deny it. For me the biggest draw is the sense of lonely beauty and decaying grandeur I feel as I play. It's very visceral. Yes it is kind of dated by now for some though I feel the aesthetic has a timeless sense that still draws me back all these years later.

Perhaps the strangest and most creative game ever devised by man.

I've had two runs at this game and cannot get into it. I can see the artistic merit and appreciate the unique vision but as an actual piece of entertainment it is hard to enjoy. If you really like surreal and challenging resource management games this could work, or if you like the Paratropic games this is probably a good time for you.

This game is like if Takayoshi Sato had a lovechild with H.R. Geiger and named him Lovecraft and him Lovecraft ate a handful of P. cubensis and wrote an outline for a game.
