I'm going to do these periodically.

Title kinda says all.

I'll have my own reply later.

The Invincible by 11 bit studios was a very cool experience. Played it over the weekend last month. It has this Soviet sci fi story aesthetic (of course bc it’s based on a story by Lem), great tension build up, great conversations, branching story that actually branches.

Oh damn, based on one of Lem's stories (I forgot his first name)?

Nice!

yeah its stanislaw lem! same person who wrote solaris. the game is based on the story of the same name 'the invincible'. the story in the game is about the same planet as in the book, but with different characters.

Yikes, how could I forget the name "Stanislaw"? It's similar to the name of one of my favorite characters in fiction!
