It's not what you say, it's how you say it. We should talk is a short-form narrative game that will make players think carefully about the words they choose. Using a unique narrative choice mechanic, players craft sentences in response to the in-game characters in We should talk. Through this careful choice of words, players express themselves as they discuss ongoing problems about life and romance with their in-game partner over text messages, while also chatting with friends and strangers at their favorite local bar about what's on their mind. The combination of words they choose impacts the conversations they have, how genuinely they can connect with their partner, and whether their relationship can survive the night.

We Should Talk is ultimately a success, despite a few less-than-appealing aesthetic choices. Its reply-construction adds meaningful and thoughtful pause to a mechanic which is normally rushed through in other VN games, and here’s hoping that it will be adapted to future examples in the genre. Playing through all nine stories is a hefty ask, though the overall brevity makes it the perfect game to spend a quiet session with once a week. Furthermore, it tells an inclusive and relatable story that will have players thinking back to their own thoughtless replies, sent or received, or recalling the painful and muddled distance grown at the tail end of romance. Outside of its reply system, We Should Talk’s strongest feature is its prompt for insight. More: Roki Review: A Heartfelt And Gorgeous Adventure Game We Should Talk is out now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One for $6.99.
