Undusted: Letters from the Past #7🪥(End) - Zara The Silent Gamer

Undusted: Letters from the Past is a bittersweet game about a young women called Adora as she returns to her family. After years of being estranged from her mother, she begins to reflect on the past and, starts to piece together her complicated feelings towards her mother.

The game utilizes a mixture of 2D art for the story, 3D and Pixel art for the game play. The pixels making the dirt look more naturally embedded into the various nooks and crannies.

The story is well told, using each new item to reflect on a memory attached to it. Although not my favorite game to use this form of storytelling, it makes a sincere effort.

One criticism I do have is to do with the mini vacuum machine. For the life of me I still don't really understand what use it has. Considering my other options do more or less the same thing and, don't have a cool down.
