Gone Home (personal opinion)

All fiery health! Without unnecessary preface, I will immediately move on to … backstory of all … history. Well, in general, something like that! Every reader, this gamer knows that there is such a golden time – summer sales in Steam. Well, this insanity also did not absorb me, a lot of inruns was acquired, even if it was impossible to replenish the steam-wallet, t.To. All terminals of Belarus have frozen this opportunity (as in time, damn it). It doesn’t matter, the solution was still found, so my list of the desired games was doubled. However, I still did not have time to get one wonderful creation. This is the game Gone Home by The Fullbright Company. My disorder knew no bounds, but a couple of days after the end of the period of unheard of generosity on the game again put a selling price tag of a half dollar. I acquired, of course, and now I will tell how everything turned out.

Of course, after the end of the ill -fated session, life again gave me a lot of free time. And, for sure, it would be more correct to spend it on the passage of games that have begun back on school days. But my desire to play is very limited by laziness, so it is somehow pulled for what time is easier. It seemed to me so “simpler” to me Gone Home, plus the gameplay process itself is not particularly stressful, go around the house, collect all different things, study. Plus for some reason it seemed that it was a horror. Well, here actually went and went. Now let’s move on to the characters and the plot itself.

Oh, this strange life!

We play for a twenty -year -old girl Kaitlin Greenbrayar, who returns home from a annual trip to Europe on June 7, 1995. Her family consists of the younger sister of Samantha (Sam), Father Terry and Mother Jen. Why it is important to remember their names I will explain a little later. So, Caitlin warns his parents in advance about his return, but assures that it is not necessary to meet her, because the flight is at midnight. No one began to meet either at the airport or even at home. Upon arrival, Kate discovers on the front door only a note from Sam … quite strange. Sam asks not to look for her, he says that someday she and her sister will still meet. After such news, somehow nothing good and rainbow is expected. And even this rain with a thunderstorm is overseas the atmosphere. Inadvertently about all paranormalism will think.

So Kate enters the mansion. For her, this structure is generally an unfamiliar place, since her late uncle Oscar bequeathed the mansion of his tribal Teddy at the time when the girl traveled around Europe. In fact, some doubts about the terms of its absence are somewhat make my way, as there could be enough money for this at all? But it is not for me to judge the features of tourism of the late twentieth century. So let’s go further. So, Uncle Oscar in this house was a kind of prisoner, did not go to meet with the outside world at all. From this behavior, the locals, of course, branded him with a psychopath. Therefore, when our family moved to the “Psychopath House”, they obviously did not increase the rating, but the square meters are very! The mansion is just huge, with a bunch of rooms! True, when I saw a room allotted for Kate with the size of a cardboard box, I somehow thought about a kind of infringement! As we study, we find that our small copy has an extensive room with a personal cabinet, safe, telecom, etc.D. So moreover, also the attic was bent under the developing room! This is generally fair?! Booms with personal developing against a cardboard box! That’s suck! In addition, “crazy parental love” is said everywhere scattered cards that Kate sent from different parts of Europe. Well, at least not in the trash, and thank you.

So, as you already understood, the mansion does not teem with people, only things, facts, memories, plots, most importantly! With careful study, you can find letters addressed to different family members. This is why it is worth remembering the names, this will help to navigate in the plot lines of our heroes. Terry’s father, for example, is a loser writer. His series of books about the Savior of President Kennedy is not successful, and, in the end, the publisher refuses to work with grief writer. Then Terry begins to cooperate with the magazine, published as a reviewer of various musical equipment. However, here everything does not go well, complaints about the format come one after another. Jen’s mother shares with her friend in correspondence by the fact that their marriage with Terry is going through the best of times, passion has disappeared somewhere while her husband is in a creative crisis. At work, Jen is preparing for a serious operation with a local forest, for which a new employee was sent to help help to help. Jen begins to look out for the prospect of stirring with him, although the young man already has a girlfriend. Well, the Sam situation in the game is the main plot branch, because throughout the game pieces are thrown from her diary, where, addressing Kate, Sam tells about his feelings for a girl from a new school named Lonny. Well, you understand what I mean!;) Girls develop real mutual lesbian relations with all the vast and ensuing. Joint trips to concerts, communication with ghosts from the mansion, acquaintance with each other’s parents, secret kisses, secret … all sorts of intimate affairs … such as hair dyeing. What did you think?! For Sam this is very intimate, she herself says so! Well, the truth is and what you thought without a description there is no left … Brrrr … But everything is not as rosy as we would like. After all, for the future, Lonni is planned to send to a kind of army, where the connection of the girls should end, because all sorts of contacts will be prohibited. Sam intends to enter the college for the literary department. So the girls have no choice but to enjoy the last moments together. Well, if you broadcast further, then these will already be such large spoilers, so I will probably dwell on this and go to the description of the remaining nuances.
