Lobby Cam by Bryn Oh

Let's start with the good. The world Bryn Oh creates is very intriguing, and it's populated by some really beautiful installations and sculptures/figures. I love the style. Now the bad: There's no way to adjust the graphics quality or aspect ratio, so the entire game is an extremely choppy, headache-inducing experience. Bryn Oh seems very pretentious by attaching her name to the title of the game, filling the main menu with links to her social media, and including her name at the bottom of every single page of poetry that you read in the game. It's rather childish. There's no ending to the game. Once you reach the end, nothing happens, and you're left wondering whether or not the game is over. You're left to continue wandering around without ever knowing whether there's more you're supposed to find/do. I'm still not certain I've fully finished the game, but there was nothing else I could find and nowhere else to go. The constant references to the pandemic and isolation are incredibly annoying at this point. We've been hearing about the pandemic every day for years, we've seen all sorts of media and social media incorporate the pandemic, and using it in this game is completely unnecessary and off-putting.
