Kirby's Epic Yarn...

by baltimore

At the time of this blog post I am completely in love with this game. There is a charm here that I have not seen in many video games in a long time. It is hard to explain, but there is a sense of whimsy and wonder that Epic Yarn has managed to obtain that keeps me coming back for more. This is not a hard game at all but it is so damn charming that I can't stop playing. Okay, that was a lie. Eve...

At the time of this blog post I am completely in love with this game.  There is a charm here that I have not seen in many video games in a long time.  It is hard to explain, but there is a sense of whimsy and wonder that Epic Yarn has managed to obtain that keeps me coming back for more.  This is not a hard game at all but it is so damn charming that I can't stop playing.  Okay, that was a lie.  
 
Even though the game is beautiful and charming, it's easy.  Very easy.  Maybe I'm not that far into it, but I blew through those first levels in about a half hour.  I do not know if the rest of the game is this easy, but I don't really care.  I have a very limited time to play games and having something this easy is actually a god-send.  
 
Oh, and when I went into the mode to decorate my in-game apartment, my cats love the dangling string that Kirby became.  I'll see if I can get them on video chasing virtual string.
