It did mean that I lost out on spending time with the other two, which is something I can do in repeat playthroughs, but I followed BeaвЂ™s story through to the end and what I saw was at times hilarious and at times devastating.

I also saw a chance to distract Bea from her difficult life and the sarcastic quips the two threw at each other were wonderful. I saw a blossoming relationship that I wanted to follow. Bea was my choice for most of my play through. They do not get along as well, so spending time with her is an attempt to rebuild the friendship. MaeвЂ™s relationship with Bea is different, however. With Angus, GreggвЂ™s boyfriend, you learn about his troubled childhood and what Gregg is like away from his friends. With Gregg, MaeвЂ™s childhood best friend, you go off on adventures just as the two of them did as kids. You can feel the characters changing over the course of the game, as they begin to react to situations differently and form noticeably stronger relationships.ДЄs Mae, you choose who to spend the day with, developing her friendship with that character. The pace at which the text is displayed is spot-on and the pauses and stutters add emotion to the particularly personal moments. Even though theyвЂ™re 2D animals, they sound like real people, with detailed personalities and a vast array of issues. Told through text alone, each character has their own story. That may all seem like a tedious way to spend your time but getting to know the characters, and more about Mae herself, is what makes Night in the Woods so special. You and one of MaeвЂ™s friends do all kinds of things from stealing belt-buckles at the mall to fixing an old ladyвЂ™s boiler. MaeвЂ™s friends (Gregg, Bea, and Angus) have jobs, people to care for, and bills to pay yet MaeвЂ™s toughest decision is deciding who to spend time with each day. YouвЂ™ll read the phrase вЂњhang outвЂќ in almost every scene вЂ“ whether that means to wait or to simply spend time with people вЂ“ because that is what you spend your time doing. In the meantime, Mae sleeps until the afternoon, talks to her friends and wanders the streets during the day, and at night she is transported to a supernatural world in her dreams.Д«eing Mae is what Night in the Woods is about.

The mining town and its inhabitants are facing economic hardship and the realities of work and responsibilities. Night in the Woods tells the story of Mae Borowski, a 20 year old cat that has dropped out of college and returned to her home town to work out where her life is going. Through the beautiful design, excellent writing, and fascinating characters, Infinite FallвЂ™s game perfectly captures the struggles of finding a place in the world as an adult and the people that can make everything feel so much better.
