I want to touch on its themes, and how they made me feel. I know I normally reserve this Thursday spot for something funny and lighthearted, but I feel like Martha is Dead is due more than a review.

It just has themes that may make some people uncomfortable, and I’d never want you to feel uncomfortable reading something I wrote. I’m not at all saying that Martha is Dead is a game you shouldn’t play. If you’ve experienced trauma, and don’t want to read this: Please don’t. The thing is, you can’t much have a conversation about Martha is Dead without talking about the underlying theme of trauma. I’m going to be talking about grief, trauma, violence, and all sorts of other squicky and uncomfortable things. I should give a warning upfront: This editorial is heavy. What Happened at The End of Martha is Dead?
