[Preview] Birth is surreal point-and-click puzzler about loneliness
Posted on 2 years ago by Nicholas Serpa in Features, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Sometimes the premise of a game is just so bonkers that it simply demands to be played. Birth – an upcoming point-and-click puzzler created by indie developer Madison Karrh – is officially described on Steam as tasking players with “constructing a creature from spare bones & organs found around the city in order to quell your loneliness.” It seemed super intriguing, and so I was excited to have the opportunity to speak with Karrh at Summer Game Fest about her game, a project she’s been developing solo for over two years.
Immediately, I was struck by just aesthetically similar Birth is to the popular Rusty Lake series of point-and-click games – and I mean that as a compliment. Karrh said that those games were a huge inspiration for her, which makes sense as the two share a lot in common at a mechanical level as well. But Birth is a very personal game for Karrh, and she started working on it as an expression of the complicated emotions she experienced after moving to a new city.
