RIP David Lynch. I doubt he knew about this game but I'm curious what he'd think about it. It emulates his style near perfectly in a way no other "Lynchian" horror really does. Perfect game utilizing the medium of a game to the fullest extent, unlike most media which usually fails to utilize the strengths of their medium. To say anymore would be filled with spoilers. Play it yourself. Don't look stuff up unless you're genuinely, actually stuck. Finish all the things you think you can in the game first, then look up all the stuff you missed. Interesting themes. Good characters. Excellent soundtrack. 10/10

Who's Lila? is a short, but sweet experience. In the era of meta-ARG styled games, this one stands out from the others as feeling very sincere. As opposed to other games that let you choose dialogue options, you instead decide what expression to give the main character, dragging the facial muscles around Mario 64 title screen style. (As you can imagine, this often becomes a Jerma face simulator.) With your powers of impaired facial control, you'll explore the ins and outs of a mystery centered around yourself. The game has 15 endings to discover (plus a handful of secret endings), and each one doles out information at a steady, satisfying pace. I'd say it's worth its price, especially if you're a fan of David Lynch's work, and worth your time. Going for 100% takes less than 8 hours, and I would highly recommend doing so. ONE DOWNSIDE: There are two mutually exclusive secret steam achievements in this game. There is a way around this, but you need to mess around with your local files and replay the game a bit to redo a 1 time event. Otherwise, you'll have that nagging feeling of a 25/26 record. Not too bad, but something to remember if you want to see everything.

This is, easily, the most insane, most innovative example of storytelling in games in years. It's a point and click adventure mystery horror inspired by the works of David Lynch, Tibetan mysticism, and general philosophy. It's a game where you have trouble expressing emotions and have to play that one Mario Party minigame with the stretchy faces in order to make it through social interactions. It's a complex meditation on the nature of human consciousness and also it had a few genuine jumpscares. It literally has everything. Just buy it. Go play it. You will not be sorry.

Who's Lila is one of the more esoteric games I've played. In literal terms, it's a point and click adventure with the primary 'gimmick' of having to manually adjust your protagonist's facial expressions in dialogue. This is done by dragging the individual facial muscles to attempt to create something resembling a smile, or frown for instance. That description doesn't give Who's Lila? the credit it deserves. It's a game that is so much more than what I've written, it's a multimedia narrative in which I had to download external software and rummage through specially made twitter accounts and pdf files to gather information on puzzles. It's not a particularly long narrative but it's extremely engaging. Formatted in short runs through the same events that can provide different endings, my total playtime was roughly 5 hours long after experiencing basically every ending.
