About A Game About

✦ AI summary

Navigate mundane daily routines through lo-fi point-and-click interactions that find unexpected comedy and poignancy in life's simplest moments. This experimental ten-minute slice-of-life unfolds with hand-drawn charm and branching choices that build toward an emotional gut-punch designed to hit right on schedule.

A Game About is a short, lo-fi (!), slice-of-life (!!), experimental (!!!) piece that recreates the crushing weight of living through the simplest routine. It's also a comedy point & click game.

Playtime should be around ten minutes. Tears - that may or may not be happy tears - should happen around the eight minutes and a half mark. I guarantee* at least two (2) good chuckles from playing the game.

Features:
  • Free
  • No IAPs
  • Absolutely free
  • Beautiful hand-drawn graphics
  • Branching Path Story
  • Achievements!

*Not an actual guarantee.

I actually liked this game. It’s simple but has a unique idea, and it makes you think in a different way. It may feel a bit confusing at first, but that’s part of its charm. Nice and interesting experience overall.

Interesting hand drawn aesthetic - turn it off for text or you will get a headache, but a fun (albeit slightly depressing) game that is short and free.

Really liked the idea, then it, AGAIN, became perverse and disgusting. I don't understand the habitual nature of "Creators" and ALL: Big media Big pharma Big tech Big gov Big EVERYTHING always pushing these sick behaviors.

Short and sweet. Great ambience created by the sfx and the simple gameplay is lovely. Showed me that there is no bounds for what a game has to be.
