Absolutely love it
I honestly love this story. It’s very beautiful and has lots of meaning - To each their own interpretation as well. It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed a story this much.
Description
"Creatures Such as We" is a philosophical interactive romance novel by Lynnea Glasser, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
Living on the moon is lonely, and stressful, and exhausting. Video games have always offered you an escape to a better life. The easy, happy life you wish you had. Which makes it so frustrating when the game you've been playing ends badly. But you have a chance to figure it out, because the next tourist group is the designers. You can debate with them about art, inspire them with the beauty of outer space, get closer to any one specific designer in particular, and finally find out how to get the ending you always wanted.

❤️ Special ❤️
This game is very simple and meaningful at the same time, not needed to use much visuals to create a sweet and calm story. I’m assuming there are more endings so I can’t say that you will get the same sweet ending but the journey is always worth it. It’s not like a typical romantic game, it felt real life story like it was possible. So Thank you to the people who created it. 💖💜💙
absolutely amazing <3
it was a wonderful game, and i loved every aspect of it! the open, inclusive customization, the opportunity to create your own end, and even the wait time in between chapters! i feel like that really gave you time to digest and think about how the story is unfolding :] the story was beautiful, and i’d definitely recommend this to my friends <3 thank you for this game!
Curious
With how meta the game was in relation to the characters’ dialogue, I wondered whether the “modify your ending” last few pages were really the ending to this game. If there is no effort needed to have game characters react or the story enfold a certain way, the resulting sequence feels much hallower.
Seriously amazing
Wow, I’m seriously taken aback. I didn’t expect be pulled in to the story and to enjoy this game so much. I usually don’t write reviews but it would be only fair to return a positive message for the incredible story you gave us. I love the creative plot and how the in game connects with reality of the character itself. I love how we get to make slight changes at the end if we weren’t satisfied with the ending. A suggestion I’d make is to add “fulfilling” and “peaceful” in your vocabulary for the in game ending. Other than that this game deserves so much more recognition for its originality and morals it holds. Please continue making more games like this!!
Beautiful
I just happened to come across this game. It’s really a beautiful story. Recommended to some people. Thank you.
Beautiful
This game was absolutely beautiful. It connected with me on a level so deep and it’s changed my perspective on a lot.
One of a kind
The story is captivating, and its message may be too blunt at points, but there’s a certain charm with the way it’s shown.
Excellent
I loved it. I have a soft spot for choose-your-own-adventure books, and I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The characters are all likeable, and the story is fairly grounded and believable. The choices you get to make work well at creating a sense of immersion. I’ll be happy to inform you that I paid for this, and I’ll gladly do so for more in the future. Thank you!
Very fun :D
Just a good game and a good story , definitely worth your time ....
