This Bed We Made

aw such a sweet little game, cozy yet mysterious and its gay too so

Pretty dull story, nothing about the charcters drew me in and the gameplay didn't really make up for it. Unfortunately, it just did not resonate with me.

I genuinely don’t know how to put into words how much I fell in love with this game. This Bed We Made has become one of my favorite games I’ve ever played. I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out what to write because I have SO much I want to say about it, but at the same time I feel like nothing I say is going to be enough. I loved everything about it. The mystery, the detective work, snooping through people’s rooms and slowly figuring out who these people are and what the hell is actually going on. I loved the atmosphere, the characters, their relationships, all the little details you find. You start playing thinking you’re just investigating something and then the story gets deeper and deeper and suddenly you’re way more emotionally involved than you expected to be. I have grown attached to Sophia & Beth. The lesbian relationship meant a lot to me. It never felt like it was shoved in just for the sake of having LGBT representation. It was just part of Sophie’s life. It felt human and natural and sweet and intimate. I really loved the way the devs handled it. Without spoiling anything, I was NOT expecting the story to hit me the way it did towards the end. There’s so much more going on underneath everything, and some of the things the game makes you think about and eventually deal with really stuck with me. I finished the game and I’m still thinking about it. Usually I finish a game, even a game I really liked, and eventually I move on. I don’t want to move on from this one I genuinely wish I could erase my memory and experience it for the first time again. I’ve never played anything quite like This Bed We Made. I know there are other detective and mystery games, but this one just feels different to me. There’s something about it that I don’t think another game could easily recreate. I REALLY hope this isn’t the last we see of this world. Please give us another story, another mystery, a sequel, literally anything. And even if they decide this story is finished, I hope you keep making games like this because I will play every single one. And to the team who made this: please never stop making games. I really hope I get to watch this studio become bigger and bigger because you made something so special. And this might sound silly, but while I was playing I genuinely had the thought that I would love to work with a team like this one day. That’s how much I fell in love with what you created. Thank you for this beautiful work.
