I want to tell you about a very specific moment in Wandersong. It comes nearly halfway through the game. The bard, our protagonist for this adventure, is absolutely down in the dumps. He’s lethargic, mopey, and has downright given up on himself so much so that he’s back living with his mother in a town full of miserable people. He’s at his lowest of lows, but his mother won’t hear of it. She doesn’t want a sad son, she wants a blissful boy. So, in an effort to appease his doting mother, the bard will force a painfully sad smile on his face anytime he’s looking at his mom.
It’s heartbreaking and comforting all at the same time and the type of small, unnecessary-but-welcomed detail that makes Wandersong one of the most charming games of the year.
