Maybe in the full gameBuy Me Some Soupwill get on my last nerve.

But the demo is the exact right balance of weird/funny/infuriating/delightful.

It’s apuzzle gamewhere you have to buy your friend some soup on an old CRT computer.

But then the soup online store is down.

Then it’s up again, but you oughta reset your account password.

Then you oughta find your credit card info.

Sure, that’s pleasant enough.

I’m curious in general.

Aren’t you curious about a Moomins video game?

Reason enough to download the demo and see for yourself.

I love the setting too.

Songs Of Silence

Ollie:Songs Of Silenceis probably the most gorgeous autobattler I’ve ever played.

Except that’s doing it a misservice, because it’s a lot more than an autobattler.

I think I prefer it.
