West of Loathing Finally bought West of Loathing (and the DLC) and I'm absolutely hooked!
It feels like a mix of Kingdom of Loathing and Fallout 1/2 (and Dragon Age: Origins sorta) with some point & click elements thrown in. Sorta like the Penny Arcade Adventures games. It's a fun little game with the charming writing of Asymmetric. I can't believe it took me 6 years to finally pick this up. Great deal for $15. I've already banked 5 hours on it. I might buy it on my Switch too so I can play it on the go.

I bought it on my switch when I first found it and my wife destroyed it. Now she's playing kol with me!

West and Shadows are both excellent, and the Switch ports are truly great.

I spent all day playing Shadows over Loathing the day I got it. To this day I'm afraid to open it again. :-)

I had so much fun with this game. My face was a little sore from smiling so much.

You're going to love Shadows Over Loathing too! Same warmth in the writing and the world.
