Description

"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.

Absolutely Gorgeous

The storyline was stunning and I was fully immersed in the interesting world of the Main Character. The whole idea of a game within a game was laid out for the player beautifully and the game really makes you think. The game is questioning— it truly makes the player wonder— and it really changes one’s perspective on the world, yet at the same time gives the player a choice.

There aren’t enough stars in the sky that I could count to rate this game.

I really, truly loved it.

This Is so good!!!

I am taken aback at how good this game was, it definitely got me attached and wanting MORE!!! But all good things do have to end, I gotta admit, I actually got a crush for one of the characters. That's just how good it was, it felt so real, it felt like it was me in the story(which is what this game is about). I'm so happy I got to experience a very good game like this.

And on that note, I WANT MOREEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you again, I truly loved every single second I spent reading and playing this game.

A story that I hold deep in my heart

I first got this when I was in high school, on my old iphone 4 many years ago (around 2014). I still think about this story every now and then, and how it greatly moved me. i love coming back to it every now and then. its been almost nine years and is still one of the most touching things I’ve read in my life.
