Every Game Shown During Today’s Six One Indie Showcase

There’s a peaceful, melancholic beauty about Miniatures. Hand drawn and featuring unique interactive mechanics, Other Tales Interactive’s collection of short narrative games asks the player to look back on difficult childhood memories, each blanketed by a layer of magical thinking.

It’s hard to call a game that confronts such sensitive themes “fun,” necessarily. Therapeutic, trancelike – those are more fitting descriptors. Playing through each of the four vignettes feels a lot like stepping back in time, into shoes far smaller than mine, adopting a perspective on the world that paints over all its cruelties with an unbridled imagination. Miniatures is both cozy and troubling in that regard – albeit deeply cathartic.
