Pairing: Gen
Description: The first scene of Inglorious Basterds. That's it, that's the game.

The Night Fisherman lasts about five minutes and is almost a direct copy of the intro scene of Inglorious Basterds. I've you've seen the movie you will know exactly what's up. There three choices, but the character you control doesn't have any of the power in the situation and while you can get a couple different endings the point here is not to get a good end. Instead of making the villain in this short a Nazi, like in the movie it copies, the game has opted to make the villain an "immigrant" hunter in the English Channel who gleefully shouts out Rule Britannia at the end of the game.

I'm not a huge fan of media that tries to say something but doesn't get much further than "X bad" The game has only got five minutes so it can't get much further than that. It also fails to hit the tension that Inglorious Basterds did with its longer, more drawn out scene. But hey, it's free and without bugs, so there's not much risk in giving it a quick run through.
