  • Summary: In her mid-20's, Kelly has been forced to move back to Nebraska. Back to that flat expanse, that seemingly endless sea of rustling cornstalks peppered by rusty silos and rustier towns. A typically intense Midwestern storm is approaching while Kelly is out; she has to get home. In the 20In her mid-20's, Kelly has been forced to move back to Nebraska. Back to that flat expanse, that seemingly endless sea of rustling cornstalks peppered by rusty silos and rustier towns. A typically intense Midwestern storm is approaching while Kelly is out; she has to get home. In the 20 miles between her grandparents' crumbling barn and her parents' house, she receives a phone call from her mother. Assume the role of Kelly during her drive through the storm in Three Fourths Home: Extended Edition. While driving through a stylized representation of rural Nebraska, players navigate an extended conversation between Kelly and her parents and younger brother. Through dialogue choice and simple driving mechanics, this critically-acclaimed visual short story explores a specific moment of these characters' lives and their relationships with one another. The Extended Edition of Three Fourths Home includes an epilogue that expands on the story of the main game. Set at a bus stop in snowy Minnesota, this epilogue examines Kelly's past as well as the effects that the events of the main story have had on her.… Expand

    For a $5 price of admission, Three Fourths Home is a must buy for those looking for a unique experience. After three playthroughs, we're still thinking about the Meyers family and have questions that we want answered. Those looking for an actual game to play, though, should know that this may not be an experience for them.

    Although I liked the minimalist aesthetics and I'm open to interesting little projects like this, Three Fourths Home: Extended Edition didn't feel like it had much of a point. I'm sure that something about this content is very significant to its creator, but the problem is that it wasn't very significant to me.

For me, it is art, but it lacks some depht either in the gameplay and plot. Most valuable things are the little brother writings. And the rain. And the corn. Wish there be more games like these, not retropixelcrap simulators and 10-minutes-of-gameplay journey clones.… Expand

I'm always happy to try games that do something a bit different, and I appreciate the idea behind the game, but at less than an hour in length and no real resolution to anything my first thought upon seeing the credits role was 'is that it?'… Expand

    No hay jugabilidad, sencillamente es una historia adornada con un arte minimalista que sobresale por los efectos de sonido.
    No es un juego para todos, para quien quiere experimentar y leer una historia interesante se los recomiendo. Pero estoy seguro que no es una experiencia propia de las consolas.    … Expand

    Paying even $5 to play what is essentially PhoneCall Simulator was a waste of $5. I appreciate games as art, but I like my art to sayPaying even $5 to play what is essentially PhoneCall Simulator was a waste of $5. I appreciate games as art, but I like my art to say something (whether I agree with it or not; I just want it to have a point so as to convey something from the artist). This had no such conveyance. It was banal and pointless and I consider myself generally very capable of discerning a theme or artist's message in most things. Save yourself an hour and pass.… Expand
