About Creatures Such as We

"Creatures Such As We" is a philosophical interactive romance novel by Lynnea Glasser, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based--without graphics or sound effects--and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

Living on the moon is lonely, and stressful, and exhausting. Video games have always offered you an escape to a better life. The easy, happy life you wish you had. Which makes it so frustrating when the game you've been playing ends badly. But you have a chance to figure it out, because the next tourist group is the designers. You can debate with them about art, inspire them with the beauty of outer space, get closer to any one specific designer in particular, and finally find out how to get the ending you always wanted.

At first I was simply recommended the game on Google play, but once I got around to downloading it, I actually found out the game was indescribably good. The details are perfect, the characters are relatable, the game is full of thoughts I regularly have and most of all, I would play this game over and over again if I could experience it like new every time. I would definitely recommend this game to anyone mature or deep thinking due to the love, loss, heartache, and subjects of death and suicide. Again, I adored this game and I honestly wish all llc games could have this style of depth and darkness

Strangely enough, the most satisfying ending is not my favourite. It seems less... Real. It's the best storytelling game I've played, but I'd like not to have the option to change my ending. Sounds controversial, but the imperfection makes it more relatable. Amazing work!

Quite an interesting experience with metacommentary on the entire experience of gaming, work and play. The first run-through lasted a couple hours and I can tell I'll be poking at it again someday. Also found a route with more than a little to say about identity issues. If more games were like this I'd probably spend more time playing.

Well, I personally doubt anyone will ever read this comment, but I only have to say that this game was pleasant. End of story. There is no graphics, no soundtrack, but the endless imagination of the mind. And that is key for this very game. Thank you creator.

This story is fantastic. I don't know that I would call it a game but it hooked me and I finished it in one sitting. Fantastic piece of writing that I can't recommend enough. My only complaint is that it's over.

Very poignant and surreal game. Gave me an uneasy feeling and made me contemplate things, which a good game should be able to do imo. Made me kinda sad but it was bittersweet by the end. Amazing game!

GIVE LYNNEA GLASSER A PAY RISE "Creatures such as we" is a truly involving work of art which absorbed my attention like a black hole! Managing to satiate nearly every desire I have from a game of its type, it proved to be thought provoking and immersive even (and especially) when it bordered on breaking the fourth wall. It encourages one to widen their perspective on philosophical outlooks in the real world, by tying them to emotional investments within the game. Creators could work on adding more adjectives and "in-game finales" to the near end sequence (a satisfying addition by the way) but regardless it remains a game I will highly recommend! * I dream of learning to write something as compelling as this! How were you influenced? GUIDE ME! I'm already inspired :) *

Another great chose your own adventure. This one is ad supported with no pay wall. There are some cool variations on the genre like a game within a game and interesting. It is genuinely philosophical. I reccomended it.

C70%
by C####:

A very engaging story with an open end, though the resolution is only created by literally asking the player how they want it to end. Still, a good space tale all-around.

Unlike any game I've ever played; it kept my undivided attention throughout. An interesting journey through choice-based storytelling.

I loved it. Every. Single. Part. The deep, thought-provoking conversations felt so genuine amd sincere and, although a bit awkward at times, is generally very well-executed. The romancing... oh wow, I miss that sort of stuff. Chaste and giggly, it may seem like a sappy high school crush to some, but for me, it's sweet in a strange way, as if it felt out of place for a heavier piece like this, although in a good way. :D 10/10, will play again.

Absolutely wonderful game. It drags you in and holds you until the end. Replay value is also there if youd like to. You can also just apreciate the beauty of an ending like in real life

This is by far the worst book game I have played so far. A game where u play a game through the main character. What a dumb idea for a book game. If you want a good book game play The Great Tournament or Magikiras or Lords of Aswick.

This game left me speechless. Wonderful story and I really liked how we can change the ending to get what we want. Thanks.

I'm in love with this game! I have no words to describe how happy I am to have found it. The characters felt so close, like actual people and I must say it sucks that this is "just" a story :( And it's full of interesting conversations, philosophical ideas and different views on them. Modern form of existentialism. The game definetly helped me realize how much impact I have on my life based on everyday decisions. It's perfect!

C70%
by C####:

Amazing story as always! By the way does the game in story exists or something similar? Also, I'd love to have a subscription model for Choice of Games, I think it would be much better than to have to pay for every individual story.

Amazing content. For a game based solely on text, I couldn't get the characters and scenarios out of my head. Imagination is the best part here. It was almost.. well, real.

I've played a lot of these games now, this is currently ranked a close second (behind the great tournament) well written and creates vivid images

Amazing game ! This now gives me an open mind about life and its wonders etc .... Hope you make more of these :)

I hope that they make a sequel to this story where you go to earth to find the team again to work on the next new game about the moon.
