Gone Home

A beautiful, LGBTQ+ love story

I honestly absolutely adored this game; it gave me a huge roller coaster of emotions in a good way, from suspense to adoration to concern to absolute joy. I enjoyed the love story and how it was both a sort of teenage crisis (especially given it takes place in the 90's) and a coming out story. I also loved the 90's vibe and references; I had a lot of my childhood rush back to me while playing, and that was definitely something that I enjoyed, plus the music in game was AMAZING. I really hope it's available elsewhere as well, I'd love to listen to it again when I can. The only major critique I have is the story of the main character and her sister's uncle; while I understand it was supposed to show how it was harder for Sam to meet people in their new home, I felt that was the only part of the game that fell flat; I believe if that was either pursued a little more (perhaps given more of an explanation on why he was thought to be crazy and more about him as well) or completely dropped for the most part, I think this game would have elevated itself to a hit LGBTQ+ game. Overall, very enjoyable, and I highly recommend it to people who want a sweet, touching story and to fellow LGBTQ+ community members!
