Our VidBud Colm used to be a postman back in the old country, and from what he’s said it was a job he very much enjoyed. Small wonder, then, that big city slicker Meredith would want a go of it for a couple of weeks in Lake, an open world explore-a-town game due out by the end of the year (and a poor SEO optimisation if you ask me, since if I ever forget the name of it I’m going to have to Google things like “post delivery woman video game small town” to find it again).
You play as Meredith, delivering parcels and interacting with the locals of peaceful and beautiful Providence Oaks at a fairly sedate pace. Take a look at the trailer, which was highlighted at during today’s Guerrilla Collective not-E3 livestream, to see if it’s the kind of gentle, twiddling-guitar-music story you’d like – it is obviously the sort of gentle, twiddling-guitar-music story I’d like.
