Article: How a Harrowing Survival Game Helped Me Become a Better Adult

[Mel Guille]

I rather liked this take on The Long Dark by Vancouver Screenwriter Patrick Ade:

How a Harrowing Survival Game Helped Me Become a Better Adult

" The Long Dark is a game about survival in the face of disaster and isolation. It's also a strangely apt allegory for the trials and tribulations of being an adult. "

What do you think?

Interesting take on the game. Yes, our lives are also about managing resources. But I don't tend to think about that very often. I rather think of the things I HAVE to do and the things I WANT to do. And I don't have any tendency to ever lie in bed depressed and run out of resources. But you never know... life twists here and there.
