What does 'going home' mean to you? Comfort? Safety? Well, if you've yet to play the critically acclaimed game 'Gone Home' then feel ashamed. Shortly after completing the game in one evening, I sat down to write a quick overview of what I thought of its awesome story-telling skills and rewarding gameplay. I consider this a must buy and so should you.

Hoo-rah! As with most genre lists, there’s some controversy about what does or doesn’t constitute a walking simulator. Dialogue and navigation is preferred over puzzles and more intensive interaction like combat or QTEs. Jumping/crouching is positively frowned upon. Strap on your hiking boots and let’s ramble!"
Starting today, Drawful 2, Gone Home, Hob, and Totally Reliable Delivery Service are free at Epic Games Store. The free game offers run until April 9 at 10 AM. Once you claim them, they’re yours to keep.
If you're a fan of the narrative-driven walking simulator genre, then these titles really need to be in your Switch games library.
How exactly is this survival horror? I've seen the entire game through, and there doesn't really seem to be any survival or horror in it at all. Granted, it's a little creepy with the atmosphere, but that's all.
I agree the heading is a little misleading, but I suggest reading the article first :)
Cheers bud :) I think the new heading is a little more appropriate.
Cheers :)
I really enjoyed this game, but scared myself for no reason on more than one occasion!
