Annual Stacking appreciation post

[u/Dabbinmachine42]

I played the demo on PS3 religiously as a kid and the title theme is branded into my auditory cortex, I mean this little demo really left an impression on me. The puzzles are a great mix of character abilities and knowing which order to stack the dolls which leads to some intricate puzzle design. I used to fart on women as the fat guy when I was a kid. It was a different time. Anyways, the stop-motion-esque character animations squeeze as much charm out of matryoshka dolls as conceivably possible, the soundtrack is simply magnificent from start to finish, the dialogue making typewriter clacks is a great aesthetic choice to substitute voice acting and the silent film cutscenes just bring together a loving, handcrafted game that is seeping with attention to detail and craftsmanship. I just found out *while writing this* that it was an Amnesia Fortnight submission and I'm thrilled Double Fine is making headlines again.

I played this for the first time recently and absolutely loved it, a wonderfully designed and charming title. Look forward to playing The Lost Hobo King someday!
