Virtue and a Sledgehammer

MKAU Gaming: 8.5 / 10 by Dylan Kocins

Virtue and a Sledgehammer is an emotionally taxing experience that deals with grief, anger, and AI by letting you swing a sledgehammer to hopefully feel better about this existence. I think this is a must-play for anyone who enjoys narrative exploration games, and you may be left reeling with your thoughts by the end, too.
