this is the thread to post about all media that reminds you of the legendary japanese history video game heiankyo alien.
recently I finished the book "earthlings" by sayaka murata, I thought it was gonna be a comfy and whimsical little novel but it gets really fucked up!! just like heiankyo alien, which looks cute but is actually a constant battle for survival full of grotesque imagery, a very mature game. and the important part is that they keep talking about ALIENS... in JAPAN... without spoiling much let's just say... it feels kinda like a dystopian world in which the heiankyo aliens actually won... heh. so I recommend it!

what about you guys? anything that reminds you of this wonderful game?

A lonely, quiet person has observations and experiences that are at once both more indistinct and more penetrating than those of one more gregarious; his thoughts are weightier, stranger, and never without a tinge of sadness. (...) Loneliness fosters that which is original, daringly and bewilderingly beautiful, poetic. But loneliness also fosters that which is perverse, incongruous, absurd, forbidden.Report message to a moderator
