This time last year, I was obsessed with the video game Kentucky Route Zero. It's about... uh... well, it's about a lot of things, but... I mean, initially you play a furniture delivery guy who's doing his last delivery, but later in the game you're a cat, and a dog, and... Also, it's about how Capitalism grinds us down, but... Okay, to start over, there's this highway, underground, called the Zero. And...

Hmm. Instead of me trying to describe it, let's have Laura Hudson at Wired describe it instead!

Kentucky Route Zero has never been a very literal game, which makes it hard to describe in concrete terms, but let’s give it a try. Imagine for a moment that the next Great American Novel was created in the 21st century as a point-and-click adventure game, woven out of Southern Gothic fiction, magical realism, and a techno-mystical understanding of hyperreality. Imagine it is a tragic ghost story about the American Dream where the ghost is the American Dream; the tragedy is that it keeps haunting America because it doesn’t know it’s dead.

Yeah. That's better.

If you aren't familiar with it, check it out. It's available on all sorts of consoles and computers. One of my favorite things.
