[Let's Play] Sisyphus Reborn part 2
0Finale
Yes, the game is ridiculously short (beaten in 30 minutes here), but it feels more "rewarding" to play this than Gone Home or that other crap that's supposedly good.
The endings were briefly touched upon but only the good ending was taken. They are as follows:
Normal(?) Ending: Keep walking to the right until you enter the glitched out desert. Eventually you'll get a message (at the very edge of the desert) asking if you want to quit the game. Pressing YES will quit the game for real, which could be interpreted as "never being seen again"
Bad Ending: Stand in the pit with all the other people that chose to do nothing and wait. You will be given a prompt to choose whether or not you wish to stay here (or something like that). Choosing YES will take away control from you and the character will stand there doing nothing, thus effectively becoming a deader than dead.
Neutral(?) Ending: Make a shovel as instructed and choose any random spot in the desert to dig. Dig until you get a prompt to keep digging forever (or similar). You will continue to dig, thus supposedly finding meaning in a meaningless world (hardly). You may get a prompt asking you if you REALLY wish to keep doing this. Pressing NO will give you a second chance to rethink your choice.
Good Ending: Make a shovel as instructed and go to the cave where you started the game. Dig at the pool of water.
The verdict for this game? I shed a tear when I played it the first time, which is something that never happens for me when it comes to games EVER, unless it's sour tears of rage, but we don't talk about that.
The game might not be a whole lot, might not be very special, but for a freeware it's pretty good. I really liked it. .
