March 2025
There are some games that entertain you, some that challenge you, and then there are the rare few that feel like they enchant you. Loom is one of those games. It doesn’t bombard you with combat or complex mechanics; instead, it invites you into a world woven with music, mystery, and quiet melancholy. You step into the role of Bobbin Threadbare, a reluctant hero and the last of the Weavers, armed only with a distaff and the ability to shape reality through song. Magic here isn’t about casting fireballs or wielding weapons—it’s about learning the language of the world, unraveling its secrets one note at a time. The concept of playing melodies forward to create and backward to undo is beautifully simple yet deeply immersive, making every discovery feel like a whispered secret between you and the game. The story unfolds like a fairy tale, tinged with sadness and wonder, full of lost legacies and an impending fate you can’t escape. The world is painted in soft pixel art, evoking a dreamlike quality that pairs perfectly with the hauntingly beautiful soundtrack, inspired by Swan Lake . Even though the game is short, its impact lingers long after the credits roll, like a melody you can’t quite forget. Loom is a game that speaks in whispers rather than shouts, one that leaves you feeling like you’ve experienced something fragile and fleeting, yet profoundly magical. It may be one of LucasArts’ most underrated gems, but for those who have played it, it remains unforgettable.

Runs perfectly well on steamdeck. The only thing you need to do is map the F5 keyboard key to an unused control so you can save an load games. Once done, the game plays flawlessly and was fun to revisit after several decades.

Loom is one of the most beautiful pixel art games I've ever played. Although a very short point and click adventure style game that most players will be able to get through in an afternoon, it features an engaging story, unique mechanics, and a bizarre but engaging ending that makes me wish the other two planned games had gotten made. Worth your time if you enjoy vintage games and want to explore a story that is both weirder and more whimsical that what the modern game landscape offers. Advice: This game was meant to be played with the use of it's manual in a physical paper format for the player to take notes as they go. Make sure to have something open you can write down your DRAFTs in. A scan of the original manual is available in the Additional Content on Steam and gives additional world building as well as a guide of how to keep your notes. I recommend reading before playing. The game also doesn't have a tutorial level, assuming the player is familiar with point and click titles already. If this is your first time, you need only to click on areas of the screen with your mouse to move or interact. If an item or person shows up in the lower menu, you can interact with it further either by clicking on the lower menu to have Bobbin narrate either further details about an object or speak with another character.

Never would have thought point & click meets music would match but it does! I am by no means a musician, I couldn't tell you what note is what sound, I can't read any sheet music, but this game actually works for me. It's a shame it never got an official sequel since it ends on a kind of cliff-hanger; however the journey is worth it. Unfortunately there is no "ultimate edition" for Loom because all the different variations (the DOS version, the TurboGrafx version, etc) all lack something that the other has and the soundtrack is not the quality it should be on most releases. There was, and is a great story in this game and it's a real shame no other company has been allowed to work on it since this is a Lucasarts owned property which means Disney owns it, which means they couldn't care less about doing anything with it. Although seeing what Disney has done to Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Willow perhaps that's probably a blessing.

One of my favorite games of all time. The world building is exceptional. I love it so much, I want to live inside the game. Used to play this all the time with my brother when it came out on floppy disk. We'd write all the spells inside of the Book of Spells as we uncovered with secrets of the Weavers. Can't recommend this game enough.
