(Free) Games You Aren't Playing- Digital: A Love Story

Hi, I’m The Dungeon Dame and I play a lot of strange games. These games won’t win me any popularity contests, but they’re usually cheap. In this case, we’re going to look at a free game! One that isn’t a terrible MMO!


If you’ve never tried a visual novel game, you might be pleasantly surprised-- they’re way more fun than the dull-sounding name implies. Since all you need for a visual novel is a bunch of text and some fun choices to make (and usually a sugar-coating of anime) this genre can go all sorts of interesting and bizarre directions.
I recently replayed Digital: A Love Story, an indie darling from 2010 and a definite example of a visual-novel-gone-off-the-rails. Set in the cyberspace of the 1980s, complete with dial-up modem screeching, it’s more of a mystery than the “love story” but I doubt you’ll complain once you’re having fun pretending to be a hacker.

In the beginning, you might want a pencil and paper for this one: this game is big on immersion, so there are very few shortcuts. Also, reply to -everything- on the BBSs just in case; it’s the best way to advance the story and there are some fun hidden jokes.

It’s free to play, so what are you waiting for? Stop reading this and give it a try if you haven’t! Plus, Christine Love, the creator of the game, has since made several sequel-ish games if you’re really digging the style of gameplay.

Omg, I just had a flashback to my childhood! If it rains this weekend, I know what I'm doing.

I really like to play these types of games most of the time when I am working in t he office hours. That is the only time where these games are working as a refreshment while working.
