The Last Campfire (2020)

The Last Campfire

This will be short.

You know how some games leave cliffhanger endings? Other games will leave weird endings like a Nolan movie. Once you are done with everything it is as if the professor is leaving the classroom with the last one-word instruction: "Discuss."

Then videos start popping up explaining the story and ending.

Done right, that sort of thing can be quite pleasant. Sadly, doing it right is full of unexpected unknown perils.

The Last Campfire's story is not entirely clear but it does not matter. The gameplay is not always straightforward and for such a small game it is possible to get lost, but, again, it does not matter.

Given the overly complicated mechanics of AAA games, it is always a pleasure to come across a game like this.

A simple puzzle-adventure combination, it makes for a quick few hours of intellectual stimulation with adequate gratification to keep the gamer going.

Another indie gem.

Highly recommended.
