This is the first texture IF I've ever actually played till the end. It's a short, nostalgic and bittersweet game about a person packing up their bag and leaving their hometown for elsewhere. Perhaps permanently or temporarily. (isn't TinyUtopias about post-apocalpytic worlds?)

So you play these games by grabbing a word and placing it on the highlighted links to access more of the story, making it very interactive, almost like a point and click game, except it's all text. I'm not sure if CSS can be changed for texture yet since it's fairly new. But the highlighted words are red, indicating something may be sinister, or maybe that's just the default color. Texture naturally makes their games a warm color similar to old books and with this story theme, it makes for a sentimental vignette.

There were some grammar mistakes, I believe. But overall the game was fine and functional.

Pros: A nice interactive piece of exploring your house and bag, utilizing textures pick and drag actions.
Cons: Slight grammar mistakes or possibly glitches?

Thanks for your review! Tony Utopias isn't solely about post-apocalyptic worlds - Caelyn Sandel has done a trio of little utopias which are set quite firmly on this world.

I did not tweak the CSS in any way; it comes like that by default. Where'd you find the grammar mistakes?

There is such a lot of it, but it's okay. -> Is there a missing word here?

A few things, I know I won't be able to find. - > delete the comma after a "A few things,"

grandaunt -> This is obviously Grand Aunt.

So these were the sentences that were weird to me. I could be wrong though.

uh. My memory is bad. I might have to play the game again. But there were times where a sentence or two was awkwardly worded I think or maybe it was just the texture jumbled it up and I got confused? I don't know, but I will play it again later in the day to check it and then edit my review if there wasn't.
