This is my first indie game review, so be gentle if I have missed any points of the indie culture which those more experienced in may have recognised where I have not. Thomas Was Alone is a game I have been watching the progress of since I first saw creator Mike Bithell at a previous GameCityNights event, the trailer intrigued me. Like a movie trailer it made me think “What’s going on here? I really want to know more.” But unlike the promises I always make to myself regarding seeing future movie releases – I actually invested in Thomas. And I’m glad I did.
