Deliberate misrepresentation and plagiarism as art, October 26, 2016by Owlor (Sweden) The text of this game is copied wholesale from "Herland" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and it, by all accounts intentionally, does a poor job communicating this fact. There is a hint towards its origin, but it's not anything that could be called disclosure: you have to a) be well-versed in obscure concept art AND read between the lines to get it. All it really does is establish that yes, the author misrepresented their own game deliberately and they are prolly feeling very smug about it. Was this review helpful to you?

You don't get to use the rules of the IF-comp as weapons in an online discussion; if you believe I am in violation of them, report me! I simply don't care enough about winning the comp for it to be useful as a threat. (Even if I was inclined to cheat, which I am not, it's simply not a big enough deal for me to go out of my way to sabotage anyone. I intentionally did not rate it and my motivation for writing the review is to inform people of facts that are already public. I have also reviewed many more IF-comp games besides this one, so if you are looking for evidence that I'm unduly influencing the vote, you should start there. |
