Passage is a video game by Jason Rohrer that was selected for exhibition at Kokoromi’s Gamma256 event. It’s a free and very small download, for OSX, Linux and Windows, and I promise it will make you smile.
Commentators from all over the world, from independent bloggers to the Wall Street Journal, have tried to describe the impact that this tiny download has had on them. I’m not going to try and explain it. It’s something that will have a specific resonance for every individual.
Download it, enjoy it, and then read the authors statement. Get ready to smile. And if you don’t smile at first, play it again. It will get you eventually.
