Description: Take an emotional journey down a country road in rural Missouri along with Ed and Mary-Helen, Sebastian’s parents. Uncover Sebastian’s life as you interact with his belongings found in the box next to you. Was he a “disgrace” like his father says or a “good man” as his mother believes?
Review: ‘Queerskins: a love story’ is a short interactive experience that at times is a little controversial, but also quite emotional as well. Without ruining the main storyline you play the role of Sebastian and you are driving away from something. Next to you is a box of memories that once you get into will unfold the storyline. While I don’t recommend to everyone due to the basic nature of the experience and the rather high price tag (given the small amount of content) I don’t want to hate on it either as I got the powerful emotions it is trying to portray. If this were free it would be a lot easier to recommend, but it costs £5.19 and it will not be for everyone. I’m not sure why this got released and ‘Queerskins: ark‘ didn’t, but it might be one to look out for if you enjoyed this one.
