Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock); my official review, part five

Wow. I feel I’ve been living this game for months when in actuality, it’s been markedly less than that. Then again, I have been playing it quite a bit, and I’m rarely playing other games.

Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock); my official review

I have been playing Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock) pretty much exclusively since I wrote part three of my ‘quick’ look at the game.

Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock): A Quick Look, part three

Wylde Flowers (Studio Drydock) continues to frustrate me. In yesterday’s post, I ruminated on those frustrations to a lengthy extent. I think part of the reason I’m so frustrated with it is because I can see what it’s trying to be–and what I want it to be. Also, when I’m not loving a game that… Continue Reading
