October 20, 2023 - Day 293 - NewPlay Review
Total NewPlays: 312Game: The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes
Platform: Steam
Release Date: Oct 22, 2021
Installation Date: Oct 20, 2023
Unplayed: 0d
Playtime: 26mThe Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes is a third-person interactive survival horror game.
This is the third of this month's Humble Choice Bundle games, and by the same developer as The Quarry, Supermassive Games.
Unfortunately, like The Quarry, this is another playable horror movie, and like The Quarry, I have no desire to play it.
In one sense, I'm disappointed. It's not like this is a bad game. The design quality and atmosphere are great, the sound design is excellent.
This is very much a me problem, rather than a gameplay issue.
If interactive survival horror movies are your thing, you'll probably get a kick out of it.
On the other hand, I'm going to have to play *something* else to be able to relax enough to sleep.
The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes is:

October 16, 1859 - Abolitionist John Brown led a group of 21 other men, five black and sixteen white, in a raid on the U.S. arsenal at Harper's Ferry, Virginia. They had hoped to set off a slave revolt — throughout the south — with the weapons they had planned to seize.
Virtually all his compatriots were killed or captured by General Robert E. Lee’s troops; Brown was wounded and arrested, and hanged for treason within two months.
Former enslaved and abolitionist leader Frederick Douglass said of Brown that he was a white man "in sympathy a black man, as deeply interested in our cause as though his own soul had been pierced with the iron of slavery."

October 11, 1987 - More than half a million people flooded Washington, D.C., demanding civil rights for gay and lesbian Americans, now celebrated each year as National Coming Out Day.
Many of the marchers objected to the government's response to the AIDS crisis, as well as the Supreme Court's 1986 decision to uphold sodomy laws in Bowers v. Hardwick.
The NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt was first displayed there, bringing national attention to the impact of AIDS on gay communities, a tapestry of nearly two thousand fabric panels each a tribute to the life of one who had been lost in the pandemic.

October 11 is National Coming Out Day—a day to celebrate authenticity, recognize the courage of Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and other sexual- and gender-diverse (2SLGBTQI+) people, and reaffirm our shared responsibility to create safer spaces for everyone.

October 9, 2023 - Day 282 - NewPlay Review
Total NewPlays: 301Game: NiGHTS Into Dreams
Platform: Steam
Release Date: Dec 18, 2012
Installation Date: Oct 15, 2020
Unplayed: 1089d (2y11m24d)
Playtime: 15mNiGHTS Into Dreams is a remaster of a Sega Saturn game from 1996. I genuinely have no idea how to characterise this game.
You're dropped almost straight into this bizarre game after choosing an avatar without any explanation whatsoever about what you need to do or why.
Apparently it was really popular, and I honestly don't understand why.
It's kind of 2.5D-ish. Your avatar merges with this weird-looking character, and you fly around the level collecting bubbles which somehow enable you to kill the level boss when you collect 20 of them, after which you get bonus time to collect more bubbles.
After the first time I died in-game, I then got semi-helpful instructions on what was happening in the levels.
The boss level? No such luck. It's almost completely different, no bubbles to collect, and somehow you need to attack the boss, but I couldn't for the life of me work out how, and eventually ran out of time.
NiGHTS Into Dreams is a big old:
1: Nope
