Lets Play The Librarian: A wondrous, eerie, dark world by Octavi Navarro
9Ok, by now, I am a full-fledged Octavi Navarro fan, this is the third game by them and each and every single one is such a neat, lovingly created experience, I am in awe.
The Librarian is pretty simple: woken up during the night by a messenger owl, you have to see what the heck is wrong at the library. And off you go into the night …
The Librarian builds a perfect little universe very different from the Midnight Scenes (which plays more in our world but make it Twilight Zone). This is more fantastic and according to Navarro’s posts part of a bigger picture (a soon to come longer game called “Booklice”) which is perfect because it is a world that you want to spend more time in, it’s gorgeous and also slightly terrifiyng (there’s a lot of bodies).
Here’s the link to the game on itch.io: https://octavinavarro.itch.io/the-librarian
Support your developers and buy it on Steam for the price of a coffee (we can’t buy coffee in coffee shops currently, anyways). You get a cool art PDF and the original soundtrack (which is lovely) with this version: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1364010/The_Librarian_Special_Edition/
And here’s Octavi’s Patreon, starting at 1€/month which is NOTHING: https://www.patreon.com/octavinavarro
Also, because I’ve just been doing some research on Octavi, here’s a pretty interesting essay on the challenges of being a smaller developer and trying to take the leap from creating free games to developing commercial games. https://medium.com/@OctaviNavarro/my-short-games-and-their-figures-by-octavi-navarro-3d291ae8a5de
