Grief like a stray dog

This was suggest a beautiful game, which had me sobbing at the end. I highly suggest playing it, as it reminds you of the grief and horrors of war brought on people who did not choose war but are forced to deal with it anyways. My heart is broken and my throat is stiff from trying not to cry so much.

Absolutely beautiful, emotional storytelling. I streamed this game, and several of my viewers let me know that they ended up crying after we finished the game together.

The year is 1944. You are Nadia, a 13 year old girl whose mother is sick. Your mother is a postwoman in a small rural community not far from the fighting in WWII. You end up having to take her place, having to know the terror and grief of being the messenger who often has to deliver the worst possible news. The toll it takes on her to do this work, and to keep her own family from falling to despair, is almost too excessive to bear. The thing is, very little of this game is a work of fiction - Nadia's character is based on the developers' grandmother's own experiences as a young postwoman on the outskirts of Rzhev, and the characters in the story are direct experiences from people who were around during that period, all who had their own brush with a funeral notice. The artwork is sparse but beautifully done, every marking made deliberately with a skilled hand. The credits end with the developer's grandmother tearfully recollecting her own experience with the war, how only one of the teens deployed returned home without a leg. I went into this game blind, expecting something else, and the gravity of the discussion being held slapped the taste out of my mouth. How lucky I am, to have…

A short and sweet game. The art is beautiful and the story is compelling. Finishing the game brought the revelation that the story is based on a real person's memories and listening to her speak brought tears. AMAZING GAME! I encourage everyone to play it.

Depression like a Stray Dog. What a interesting art style and way of depicting grief. The characters are gripping, the atmosphere is immersive, and the gameplay is intriguing. I highly recommend shutting yourself in the dark and experiencing this rich game to it's fullest.
