Until Then, developed by Polychroma Games and published by Maximum Entertainment, is a narrative adventure set in a beautiful pixel-art world inspired by the modern day Philippines. You play as Mark, a high school student who is doing his best to keep up with school, life and his friendships while his parents are both working abroad. Although Mark is smart and capable, he struggles to maintain motivation for school and has started to question the direction his life is taking. His whole life is turned on its head the day a new student joins the school. In Episode 48 of No Small Games, Kate and Emily are joined by Jared Moss, co-host of the Play Along Podcast. The three dig deep into this game, filled with twists, turns, and multiple endings, and try to sort out the truth of Mark's situation. You'll learn which of the many emotionally-charged moments in Until Then struck a chord for each of our crew, and which plot points fell a little flat. We hope you enjoy our discussion of this mind-bending and deeply moving game!
