Mini Review Lydia (Switch) - One Of The Most Emotionally Impactful Games On Switch

News Lydia Is An Upcoming Switch Game Based On The "Tragic Childhood Memories" Of Its Developers
$1 DLC will go to charity
Later this month sees the launch of Lydia on Nintendo Switch, a narrative game that's based on the real experiences and "tragic childhood memories" of its developers. The game has players experiencing the story of a child who lives with 'drunk and broken' parents, with "emotional graphics, music and dialogue" said to be...
About The Game
Explore the thought-provoking memories of a child with drunk and broken parents. Based on real experience, this award-winning story makes no compromise.
How may a resenting and alcoholic household affect a little girl full of imagination? How may she perceive the twisted and manipulative family dynamics?
Grow up with Lydia and try to understand the feelings, behaviours and events that moulded critical moments of her life. Confront the monster with your own sensitivity.
This hand-drawn game can be completed in around one hour. The emotional music was composed by renowned film composer Juhana Lehtiniemi.
The issues reflected in this story unfortunately happen in real people’s daily life. You can provide some help by donating to a supportive non-profit organization via the DLC #LydiaDonation.
