Emily is Away

[b]Notice: This review is based on my personal experience, which is very similar to the story of the game. Call it a semi-spoiler. With that said, those with intentions of playing the game without being spoiled, please look elsewhere.[/b] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I used to have a lot of friends back in high school. And there was this one person with whom I never spoke too much. After graduation, she left for the US. We were able to get in contact with each other through social media, though. I think I struck a conversation with her first, and that's when our friendship started to blossom. A few days in, we start to talk about almost everything, being all nice to each other and stuff. We speak about what school was like. Just sharing memories. A few weeks in, mid-2012, and we talk to each other non-stop. We tend to stay up late for each other. Sometimes, we'd ask each other stupid questions just to keep the c...

The game is about you having a crush on a girl from your high school and chatting with her. The game puts you in 3 years of the character's life where he chats with his crush Emily. It's kind of fun. You say something, then she replies, then you have to reply and it goes on. Each time you have to reply, you will have three choices of what to say. So you have a few options and it won't be like watching a premade tv show. Picking what to say is not all you have to do. You have to type it too. Well, not quite by yourself. There is a premade sentence for each choice. When you start hitting your keyboard buttons and try to type something, the letters began to be placed one by one. So you can either try to guess what your reply choice will say and try to type that, or simply just spam one button until the sentence is complete. Whichever type you are. It's kinda fun but also saddening and stuff. Just like a real crush. If you don't want to go through the pain of having a crush on someone,...

this was a nice trip down memory lane of living through the early 2000s when everyone was on AIM and myspace. simpler days when away messages were an outlet of creativity and emotion. as a game though, it's not much fun. i played twice thinking the outcome would change with different responses; it doesn't. the entire premise of the game is just instant messaging. there's a reason this game is free to play, i wouldn't have paid even $1 for this. you're not missing out on anything if you don't play this and honestly i feel like i wasted an hour of my life. not entirely sure how this game won any awards/received any praise.

The story wasn't very well done, and [spoiler] It always ends the same poor way[/spoiler]. It's a incredibly short "story" that leaves you with an empty feeling at the end, and when I say empty I mean more like pointless. However it took me on quite a nostalgia trip. If you used to chat with your buddies using AOL instant messanger on Windows XP like I did years back than you should give it a shot. it's pretty unique how well it made it feel like the early 2000s. The whole game is played on a simulated computer using an AOL instant messanger clone to talk to your friend, it even has the drama and stupid "situations"that being a teenager comes with. Felt pretty close to how I remember it feeling like back when. It has value in my eyes despite it being a faliure. If you're around my age than I reccomend putting giving it a quick playthrough (20-30min), jumping a couple years in the past for 30min itsn't so bad. Hell, If it was any longer I would be pulling my hair out.

It's a cute concept but I spent an hour putting up with this girl's emotional baggage. The whole time is her messaging me with vague comments and then it's my job to lead the conversation and get her to tell me what's wrong. That's pretty shitty and manipulative and if you're the only one driving the conversation all the time, the person is just. not. into. you. [spoiler] Apparently, this turns out to be true no matter what you do. Your whole purpose in Emily's life is to be her therapist and fix her sads. Oh, and her rebound, which ends up being your fault.[/spoiler]

Love the RPG/FPS elements, really love the fluent combat as well.... No but actually I did really enjoy this game it's good for like a 30 minute to 1 hour time waster and is a cool and pretty interesting story (Even though it's a tad generic). My only draw back for the game was that sadly their wasn't another ending. I defifnitely recommend it, especially if you want a cool nostalgic experience or just a a time waster for an hour. And it's also free to play, so I would defitely try it out.

Really boring game, the old pixel art Windows XP interface is really well made and all. But the writing, the main core of the game, sucks. It's based on unnecessary heteronormative drama, no thinking outside the box allowed, you are forced to play the Nice Guy™ all along. I definitely couldn't relate to this game and neither of all the answer choices fitted. If you like the concept, go play Digital: A Love Story. It's much more well written.
