    Even if We Are Chicago isn’t always fun, it does feel uniquely valuable.

    It’s too bad that its production values and general lack of polish keep it from ever achieving a proper moment of emotional transcendence… [but] there’s enough earnest desire to show you the world through a glass darkly that We Are Chicago isn’t without value.

    This game is absolute garbage.
    It's a walking simulator with no real gameplay and it looks absolutely terrible.
    The story is just pandering,    This game is absolute garbage.
    It's a walking simulator with no real gameplay and it looks absolutely terrible.
    The story is just pandering, rich white peoples impressions of what black people are like, and the dialogue is cringeworthy, clearly being written by white hands who have no idea what black people actually talk like.
    The message, that's it's tough to be black? I guess?
    There are no choices in this game, every single things is on rails, no dialogue options have any noticeable effect on anything.

    This is like a bad walking simulator one guy might have made in his bedroom circa 2000, don't waste your money, and only waste your time watching someone else play it if you enjoy extreme incompetence.    … Full Review »
