Consume Me Review

Yknow, it did kinda lose focus at the end, by turning into a meta montage and kind of losing sight of the initially tight focus. We never got to see the diet systems truly fall apart or backfire, we never got to see a narratively satisfying build-up or rock bottom. But I think that's an understandable flaw for a game that is beholden to it's autobiographical form. By and large this game surprised me: it had fun moment to moment gameplay, great writing, hilarious little gags, and some interesting systems at play. It isn't just a cool idea, in fact I think it ended up having less going on conceptually and more going on mechanically.

Score: 8/10
