Age of Mythology was essentially the cliff notes version of Greek, Egyptian and Norse Mythology. The amount of trivia questions I get right from having played that game alone is bizarre.

I love games that borrow from classical works and stories. It’s absurd how much trivia you learn from just gaming.

You're so right. I've heard snippets of these poems, but I looked them up and got a good dose of education. Now I know Ozymandias was inspired by an Egyptian pharaoh.

I love a good walking sim and this looks BEAUTIFUL (and unsettling)

Damn, you should have written this for me. That's the perfect description!

Also check out The Shore, one of their previous games. Not as stunning as this, but still an interesting horror walking sim.
