Crows Crows Crows, the development team behind this game, are going to be delivering some really special stuff in the coming years. it is the new game from the new studio from William Pugh, co-developer of the Stanley Parable. The game does contain a bug which makes it impossible to get the six achievements if you alt-tab out of the game.

These lads determinedly make games which are so dependent on surprise and delight and most of all discovering them for yourselves that a critic’s only role, at least until everyone has played the thing, is to wear a foolish grin or a sad frown in order to affect you, The Consumer’s, Purchasing Decision. I enjoyed lead developer William Pugh’s The Stanley Parable for what it was, and I gushed about (sometime Paste contributor) Jack de Quidt’s Castles in the Sky for Paste when it was released a couple years ago.
There are not very many “real choices” in this game – it is not like The Stanley Parable, you can not make the game follow a completely different route. At best, you’re going to alter a few lines of dialogue. Only this is free, so all I am is the gatekeeper of twenty minutes of your life. While I now know the latter well enough to tweet back and forth with him, I sort of slept on Langeskov until very late in the year, and I’m worse for it.
