If you enjoyed Emily is Away, you’ll surely revel in Emily is Away Too. The enrichments offered by adding in music videos and memes of the time make this a much more filled-out experience, as do the addition of file shares and social media profiles that’ll give you a deeper insight into the characters. It may touch a little too close to home at times for some, but it’s a worthwhile trip into your recent past regardless.

Like its predecessor, I’m unlikely ever to forget Emily is Away Too. What developer Kyle Seeley has created is a great reminder that excellent immersive storytelling is reliant on only two things: an unique idea, and the vision and passion to see that idea materialize.

Emily is Away Too is basically the first game expanded beyond a simple gimmick. It may not be the best piece of interactive fiction ever created, but quality-of-life changes to the original formula make the journey feel more personal for individual players. The multiple endings really seal the deal, meaning you’re in for heartbreak or everlasting love.

As with the first one, Emily is Away Too is a wonderfully crafted narrative experience that echoes what it was like to be a teenager in the mid-2000s. For such a simple concept, the level of detail really makes this game a fantastic narrative experience. If you like short narrative experiences, I can’t recommend this enough.
