Kentucky Route Zero Free Write – Fantastical Elements

Whether the story of Kentucky Route Zero is happening in a real world or a dream remains a question. The game has made a lot of effort to form the surreal ambience about which players wonder: Is this really happening? One that leaves me deep impression is the conversation between the woman and Conway. All the woman says might be plausible, but is surely very odd as well. As I chose words to respond, I feel like Conway is trying to communicate with a drunk woman, or someone sleepwalking, or maybe a mysterious prophet. The same feeling came a little bit every time I communicated with the other characters. There is some sort of barrier the game has set to prevent us from thoroughly understanding others. And the scene also conveys this type of barrier when fixing a TV leads us to a warm-toned hazy world you can only see in your dream. With the overall cool color tone, and mere silhouettes of characters, the mystery of Kentucky Route Zero is exaggerated and that all leads to one question: Where exactly is Kentucky Route Zero?
