What other games left you feeling contemplative after a cosmic horror vibe?
#1
I just finished this weird little game where you play as a janitor cleaning up after a cosmic horror event, and I can't decide if it was deeply profound or just kind of pretentious. The whole mood has really stuck with me, but I’m not sure what to even make of it. Has anyone else had an experience with a game that left them feeling strangely contemplative?

I felt a quiet weight after finishing that janitor game it lingers like a memory from a storm the cosmic horror mood digs in and sticks around in a person kind of way

the pacing and visuals invite a reading about memory and waste rather than a plot twist and that might be the point about cosmic horror as a lens inviting us to read fragility and meaning without a tidy answer

it might be a pretentious vibe more than a deep message maybe the game is selling mood and you are buying it too easily

what if the question is not about meaning but about how small acts of care in a big absurd world feel like a quiet victory even if the big picture stays unclear

i thought the janitor was maybe a thief cleaning up clues not a caretaker of memory maybe i misunderstood the role

do we need a message at all could the value be in just the mood and the acts of cleaning up keep that frame open rather than pronouncing a moral?
