Delete After Reading is coming on March 14th
Delete After Readingis a delightful looking text-based puzzler that will be familiar to anyone who’s played Simogo’s excellent (albeit sadly iOS-only game)Device 6, only with fewer spooks this time. Like Simogo’s surreal thriller, most of Delete After Reading plays out like you’re reading a novel, where scrolling through paragraphs of text will reveal images, clues and puzzles you can interact with. As the devs put it, Delete After Reading is a “game you can read, and a book you can play,” and looks and sounds really quite rad. Even better, it’s releasing on March 14th.
So, Delete After Reading is decidedly less spooky than Device 6, but I’m still into how whacky everything sounds. I watched a hefty number of films last year that centred on taking down billionaires, and I’m excited to see more and more games tackle that too.Hi-Fi Rushalready has the ball rolling and we won’t need to wait much longer to see Delete After Reading pass it on. Saving a game from the clutches of an evil billionaire seems very hyper aware, but I’m here for it.
Delete After Reading is launching on PC viaSteamon March 14th. If you really can’t wait that long, there’s also ademoavailable right now.
