Plague Doctor: Contagion 430 BCE–2020 AD

picked this up cuz Two Scoop Games is awesome (I'm really looking forward to Kick Bot once it leaves beta), and wasn't disappointed. obviously, it uses that asset pack that lots of indie devs are using, but it's not an asset flip and the only real problem that comes of it (aside from me feeling that its assets are visually serviceable; your mileage of course may vary) is when the writing tells you that a character has bloodshot eyes or something like that which is not conveyed in the character model--which didn't bother me too much. all in all, it's timely, reasonably priced, well written, doesn't overstay its welcome, and the promise of extra stories next year has me interested to check this out again in 2022. takes about 20 minutes for a playthrough of both stories that are included now, but you can replay for different choices, so the developer's estimate of ~1 hour is probably apt. with the promise of 2 more stories, there will presumably be around ~2 hours of good story in here, which is more than fair for $3 imo.

Plague Doctor Contagion, was a short and sweet retelling of different pandemics through time. I greatly enjoyed the music in the game, the graphics are nothing special but still stylized in a unique way I wont forget soon, and the game play could do with more interactivity (examples could be, puzzles, finding objects to help people, or having your decisions affect your outcomes in a more prominent sense.). For $3 this game is not bad, I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the descriptions of the diseases and what they were doing to people, and I liked seeing history played out in front of me like they did. Small nitpick, adding an options menu for basic things like resolution and volume would be nice!

A series of interactive short stories that explore pandemics throughout history. There are dancing skeletons 👍🦴

This is a short one, but cute, with well-written text and surprisingly educational. Even a few little jokes and secrets. I look forward to the upcoming DLC.

It is too short! Half hour gameplay tops! In my opionon, not worth $3!
