The King of Shreds and Patches, by Jimmy Maher

ambitious and enthralling, September 9, 2021

i have (overall) been really impressed with this game. i love the setting and of course the Lovecraftian vibe is great. some of the parsing and phrases are a little clunky, and there's a lot of "guess the verb." i think i'm about 3/4 through, but it's hard to say. it's a lot of fun to play, and the HINTS feature comes in very handy, as does the THINK command! i think 4 1/2 stars is a more accurate rating for this game, but, alas, this is not an option...

very cool, April 7, 2016

nothing like simulated mental deterioration...once everything clicked into place (Spoiler - click to show) the radio! it kinda blew my mind. moral of the story: (Spoiler - click to show) don't do drugs in the desert.

a great little game with a unique narrator, April 7, 2016

one of the most original "escape the room"-type games i've ever played - i can only assume the premise came to the author in a "stroke-of-genius" type situation. the puzzles are clever, and the game is charming, occasionally sad, and overall a pleasure.
