About the Game

I’m not sure about this one, I shouldn’t really be selling it.

A customer brought it in this morning and, apparently, it’s not working correctly. He said it didn’t make much sense to him, but I don’t know what his expectations were. You know what this kind of trip can be like for some people.

Anyway, it’s supposed to be varied, a few locations, a nice hotel and not too crowded. I think there’s even some wildlife. I should return it to the company, but if you’re just looking to get away for a bit, I can give you a good discount. That would save me the effort of sending it in. Obviously, there are no guarantees as I haven’t tested it myself.

So, you’d be on your own with it. You’re ok with that right?

Defective Holiday is single player, first person, lightly interactive will take under an hour to complete. As you play, you’re pulled between different scenes – a beach, departure lounge, restaurant, taxi and more - present in each location for only a fleeting moment before being moved on to the next.
