Key quotes
· 2 pulledThe Lonesome Guild is decidedly much more kid-friendly, featuring a cast of anthropomorphic animals adventuring together — along with a ghost, who’s more “Casper the Friendly” than poltergeist.
With its focus on the evergreen theme of friendship, it’s the exact type of game I would have enjoyed as much when I was a kid as I do now.
