And right off the bat we start with a favorite of mine (well, they are kind of all my favorite, that why they are on the list, but this one is special) in both the story it tells and how it tells it.
This wonderful tale of which of speak is a screen shot let’s play of Animal Cross on the DS by the ever brilliant writer Chewbot.
Andrew, you’re probably now saying, how does one LP Animal Crossing in an at all interesting way?
Well dear reader this is how, create a narrative vaguely situated on the games tiny tent poles prepare to dive into the darker side of this “children’s game”
Join Billy as he is dropped off at a “summer camp” and the “trials” he faces on his attempt to escape.
Chewbot’s masterful blending of his own story and artwork with bits from the game create a fantastic sense of odd unease where words you’ve heard before take on a grim other meaning.
As my usual style, I’m just gonna shut up now and let the piece do the talking, its not even that long so no excuses.
