Press reviews: “Signs of the Sojourner stands out by taking an intriguing approach to conversations.” Polygon “It’s one of the most fascinating translations of human communication and connection to game mechanics I’ve seen.” VG24/7 “This should be everywhere. It should be the indie darling of 2020. And while there’s certainly something bittersweet in this immediate moment in playing a game about moving about, talking to strangers, and the intimacy of conversation, if anything it’s reminded me of the great value of what we can’t have in our real lives right now. This is utterly wonderful, and I implore everyone to pick it up.” 93/100 – Buried Treasure
