Fishing Hell: Lake Of Roaches

A Tuesday morning isn't the best time to play the latest game that has emerged from the bone-dry laughter-well that passes for thecatamites' internet tube. It doesn't matter though because the perfect time to play is thirteen o'clock in the morning on the day after whenever, and you'll be asleep then. My advice? Download Lake of Roaches immediately and if you happen to be at work, invite everyone to gather round and watch your screen. They'll be entranced by the tale of static, vacations, insects fishing and humaning. The basic beats of the story would be intended to frighten if thecatamites didn't confuse and corrupt them, flickering between the comic, the creepy and the cartoon. A playthrough will only take five minutes but the environment and story are dense enough to reward a replay.
