What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Kafka's Metamorphosis (Android)

October 18th, 2024

I was still a bit tired yesterday, so I mostly just played Kafka's Metamorphosis, a mobile-only visual novel integrating a retelling of The Metamorphosis with a fictionalized story about Franz Kafka's life. I played the first fifth of this last night, and it's more straightforward than I wanted from something about Kafka. The stuff about his bad relationship with his abusive father feels over-simplified so far, too. I'm definitely going to finish this, though, because I am too curious not to see it through.

I let Magical Circle Guru-Guru: Stardust Memories run next to my desk while I was working, too. I did not accomplish anything this way, but being able to occassionally look over and see tiny people running about kept me on task.
