Most of these games are built on small moments, trusting the player to find some emotional resonance by going through an absentee person’s belongings to earn a voiceover, or searching an environment for letters filled with beautiful prose. If you find such games boring or pretentious, Virginia could be the one to sell you on the genre.","2025-03-26T08:10:47.158504-04:00",{"id":249,"logo":263,"name":264,"slug":265,"tags":26,"bluesky":26,"twitter":266,"youtube":267,"facebook":268,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":269,"website_url":270,"score_format":47,"average_score":78,"default_timezone":48,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":49,"headquarters_city":271,"news_editor_email":26,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":242,"reviews_editor_email":26,"editor_in_chief_email":26,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fgameinformer.jpg","Game

tells, with a raw, understated power and a calculated nuance that make even the smallest, most mundane details brim with narrative and emotional significance.

If it was up to me, everyone would play this. Then they would tell me not just what they thought of it, but what a certain item, location or actor signified, because an important part of Virginia may well be what you bring to it. I know many won’t like the idea of traipsing through its scenes or passively watching its unfoldings and, sure, if you think you won’t enjoy any of that, you’re right on the money. But if you’re a little bit curious, or if you enjoyed any of the games with which it shares its DNA, Virginia may be one of the oddest and most fascinating things you’ve played in a long, long time.
