Elegy for a Dead World

Elegy for a Dead World Review (PC)

Elegy for a Dead World is a game so unique that there is no point of reference for it. Nothing like this has been done before, and it fills a niche that many gamers will appreciate. It's basically a sort of writing community and writing aid, all built into one, enabling you to channel your creative vision through its art and atmosphere, and lending a helping hand to those who don't know how to start. It's more of a place than a game, a place where you can go and enjoy other people's writing, and to see other people's different perception of the things you witnessed and saw in a certain way, and to get inspired by them and write some more. It's both weird and wonderful, satisfying and incomplete, and it's definitely something that you should consider if you're into writing and reading. However, it's also lacking a certain something that would have made it seem like more than just an experiment. It somehow seems just too indie, from the small worlds to the way your stories are shown, perhaps feeling too primitive compared to what it could have been with the proper resources. It's a different experience alright, and if you're into writing, especially if you're not as picky as I am, and are struggling to find your footing, you just might find it on the three deserted planets Elegy for a Dead World urges you to explore.
