This secret was the first thing, I think, that made my mouth drop open, and I realized I had gotten myself into something unexpected. The narrator (an unreliable narrator if ever there was one) tells you a secret right off the bat. Little Misfortune is such a ball of light, love, and innocence in such a dark world, a world no child deserves it really affected me. Sometimes, I expect to cry at the end of a story, but never at the beginning. Her family is so abusive that she carries around a bottle of glitter with her, and with a toss of the hand, she brightens things that makes her unhappy. She has had a life so terrible that the things that are about to happen to her she mostly shrugs off. Little Misfortune is a young girl, abut eight years old. I downloaded the game and started playing it, and instead of laughing, I was immediately overwhelmed with a number of different, conflicting emotions. It took me about three and a half hours to go through the first time, and I imagine I’ll play this over and over again… well, let me rewind a little. I immediately picked it up and started playing it a second time. I downloaded it and started playing it, and I didn’t put the controller down until I was done. I felt like a good laugh, and the animation looked gorgeous. And then, I heard that voice, the voice of Little Misfortune. (Do kids say “doozies” anymore? If you literally have no idea what that means, drop a comment in the comment section.) Not only was this week the release of some big bundle/collections like Borderlands and Bioshock, but I was stuck between choosing a few different games that were each $20 and flipping back and forth between my Switch and PS4, devouring trailers. Normally, I try to fit in a couple of different games to review, so that the $25 you spend will truly be worth it and take you at least to the next week when you can then add a couple of more doozies to your list. Note: The price tags listed are at time of purchase which may have been during a limited sale.
