By Dogon Saturday, October 2, 2021 Last Call Is An Intimate Game About Healing From An Abusive Relationship - Kotaku I recommend wearing headphones while playing Last Call, because it uses sound so effectively. It’s mostly a silent experience, aside from ambient music, but sometimes boxes will call out to you as you play. Whispers from the narrator reciting fragments of the poems break the silence, and you have to locate which box the whispers are coming from, addressing the trauma of that memory before doing anything else. The effect, without fail, made my skin crawl as I explored the house. The narrator’s poems are sometimes coupled with images of Freeman herself, capturing her emotional state during both the honeymoon period of her relationship and what followed. Throughout the poems are moments where the narrator is gaslit, and verbally and physically abused. Despite all of this, Last Call never feels like it’s just wallowing in trauma. The more you pack things up, the lighter the rooms become. Windows begin to open, indicating the healing that the narrator is finding as she puts the past away. At the conclusion of the game, Freeman includes a link to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, which offers resources for survivors of such experiences. Last Call is a gem of a game that pulls you in via innovative mechanics and powerful writing, carefully conveying one person’s journey of recovery from an abusive relationship in a way that only a game could.
