"I’ve played my handful of puzzle games with Portal being the main one to grab my full undivided attention in the past year. Yet when the game Catherine was announced, I wasn’t sure what to think. At first glance I thought this was going to be a pretty “naughty” game if you know what I mean, but once I saw the gameplay and a glance at the story, I grew very curious about Catherine. Atlus, the creators of the game, already have a good history at messing with people’s minds thanks to the Persona series and I only know that from word of mouth. I have not personally played the Persona series and I can’t really say how those games make some sort of tie-in to Catherine but all I know is that I was already convinced and ready to play it (however with info I gathered from a certain someone there seems to be). I love puzzles and I love a good story but did I love Catherine? While it does depend on which Catherine we’re talking about and regardless of my outcome, the answer is a 100% yes."
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
Deadly Premonition is a pretty weird game, but all of these absolute oddities are even weirder.

The subject of this Looking Back article is something a little different however, as it deals with infidelity and the fallout that comes the way of the straying main character. Intrigued? Well, come with me to the weird world of 2011’s Catherine!"
