Forum Overview :: The Backrooms :: Liminalcore

[quote name="blackwater"]<a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/3107900/Liminalcore/">Liminalcore</a> is a walking simulator that focuses mostly on the poolrooms, but which also has some "kids play area" themed areas. (Side note: I recently found that the guy most associated with the poolrooms aesthetic is <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jaredpike.art/">Jared Pike.</a>) It has a lot of the same strengths and weaknesses of <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2663530/POOLS/">Pools</a>. I even feel like they borrowed some common aesthetic things like the giant statues. Still, I enjoyed that game, and I enjoyed this one too. Pools had just a little more to do, which probably makes it slightly better. The last level in this game is a little more spooky ooky, which you might like (or maybe not). A game like this is all about the imagery, and I feel like it shines in that area. The worst part is that it's relatively short. I beat it in 2 hours. The best part is the slight non-linearity, where you can take a few different paths to get where you're going. I feel like that adds to the feeling of being in a large world.[/quote]
