Penumbra - Lore (Part 1: At the Mines of Madness)
Episode Notes: A return to Frictional, the studio that inspired the creation of this channel. Penumbra is the scrappy, film school version of Amnesia: the Dark Descent, and I love it for it. It starts out as by-the-numbers Lovecraft and ends as something wholly unique. I'm so happy to revisit it! Hope you all enjoy it. My Patron Page: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4106047 Your donations go a long way, even if it's just a dollar. If enough people give, I might be able to do this full time and get some serious production value in these movies. A Declaration: Welcome to the Gameological Dig, a channel devoted to playing games with obtuse and interesting stories. The aim of this channel is to treat these game worlds like an archeological site, meant to be unearthed and studied, so that we may better understand their plots, characters and themes.
