- Have You Played Gorogoa? - 18 June 2019
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Truth be told, this is probably best played on a touch screen, because it feels like it s meant to be interactive in that slightly more intimate way. But whatever you play it on, you should have a go at Gorogoa . (more…)
- A Panel Shaped Screen: screen shaped panels and games that play like comics - 10 May 2019
A Panel Shaped Screen is a monthly column where Giada Zavarise explores how comics and video games inspire each other (and is supposed to be on a Thursday, my bad. This week Giada is looking at the games that are actually comics. Drawing a comic book is like playing Tetris with narrative beats. You have to somehow put on a page everything the script requires you to draw, give the right amount of space to important moments, make sure the reader s gaze flows naturally from panel to panel, and all your panels must look nice and clear but also in harmony with each other. So you, the artist, sketch little layouts first. You shuffle and rearrange the panels, trying to find the right combination before drawing the page. It s a difficult process, but it can give you the same satisfaction of playing a puzzle game — so it s no surprise to see developers turning this process into a literal g…

- How Gorogoa is a game about fitting things together - 22 January 2018
This is The Mechanic , where Alex Wiltshire invites developers to discuss the difficult journeys they underwent to make the best bits of their games. This time, Gorogoa . Gorogoa is a game about fitting things together. Fitting a detail in one image with a detail in another and see how it produces something new. And in making it, developer Jason Roberts found that making things fit was one of the greatest challenges he faced, whether those things were puzzles into the game’s tiles, sequences into its story, or details into players heads. Gorogoa is also a game about linking things together. You draw relationships between images and find them leading into and influencing wider themes. And in making it, Roberts found that each decision he made had profound effects on others, the biggest being limiting the game to its two-by-two grid. (more…)

It then went on to win an IGF Award in 2014 , despite being unfinished. And now, finally, it’s here. And as our review says, it’s magnificent . We spoke to lone developer Jason Roberts about the long development, the process of what to leave out, and how unknowability was woven into the fabric of the game. (more…)
- Wot I Think: Gorogoa - 12 December 2017
Gorogoa feels like a sort of magic that might fall apart in the understanding. It’s a beautiful story in which you solve puzzles more by instinct than deduction, and their solutions feel as magical as the process. Its impossibly overlapping world weaves a delicate fiction that stretches beyond the boundaries of its central conceit. (more…)
