The premise of this game begins on a spaceship flying towards the planet Vertumna. Now that sounds like something I could appreciate, so I decided to take the leap and see if being a teen exocolonist was right for me. But then I read an article by IGN’s Reb Valentine that highlighted aspects of the game I hadn’t heard about before – specifically, that I Was a Teenage Exocolonist is a deckbuilder and RPG where the choices you make in character determine your stats as well as the cards in your deck.
And while I’m sure somebody wants that, it certainly isn’t for me.
I like visual novels but I hated being a teenager, and this description of the game as a simulation game on an alien planet had me thinking that this was essentially just space Stardew Valley with puberty. When I first heard about the game ‘I Was a Teenage Exocolonist,” the conversation was pretty focused on the title as a visual novel and adolescent life sim. Sometimes it takes just the right pitch to realize that a video game could be for you.
