Nov. 2024

This is, easily, the most insane, most innovative example of storytelling in games in years. It's a point and click adventure mystery horror inspired by the works of David Lynch, Tibetan mysticism, and general philosophy. It's a game where you have trouble expressing emotions and have to play that one Mario Party minigame with the stretchy faces in order to make it through social interactions. It's a complex meditation on the nature of human consciousness and also it had a few genuine jumpscares. It literally has everything. Just buy it. Go play it. You will not be sorry.

Who's Lila is one of the more esoteric games I've played. In literal terms, it's a point and click adventure with the primary 'gimmick' of having to manually adjust your protagonist's facial expressions in dialogue. This is done by dragging the individual facial muscles to attempt to create something resembling a smile, or frown for instance. That description doesn't give Who's Lila? the credit it deserves. It's a game that is so much more than what I've written, it's a multimedia narrative in which I had to download external software and rummage through specially made twitter accounts and pdf files to gather information on puzzles. It's not a particularly long narrative but it's extremely engaging. Formatted in short runs through the same events that can provide different endings, my total playtime was roughly 5 hours long after experiencing basically every ending.

I had a psychotic episode a few days ago, I felt like an angel from another dimension was coming and they were going to take over my body and kill everyone I loved. I keep thinking to myself "This is so fucked up, this is just like Who's Lila, this is messed up I'm gonna get Who's Lila'd" I got really close to hurting myself in my fear and panic. So yeah this game literally nearly killed me. It's pretty damn good.

It's like if David Lynch was allowed to turn the face morphing in Mario 64 into a full game, using Twin Peaks Season 3 concepts as its basis.

There is an idea of a William Clarke. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.
