F. Scott Fitzgeraldâs wife may have given video games the name of one of the mediumâs best franchises, but what did F. Scott ever give us gamers? The Great Gatsby game? Apparently, itâs not good, though thatâs not his fault.
Here is blogger Jennifer Wright, crushed because of The Great Gatsby video game:
When I heard there was a Great Gatsby video game, I couldnât wait to try it out. Super exciting, right!? I wondered if they would have choices like âPlay Nick Carraway with homoerotic subtextâ or âplay Nick Carraway without homoerotic subtext.â Obviously, at some point I would get to run over a poor person in my roadster. Maybe we would see what happened when one bad driver met another bad driver! Actually, the Great Gatsby would make a great basis for a race car game.
But, alas, it is not that kind of game. Itâs a âhidden objectâ game where you find objects in a sceneâŠ
She did try it and says itâs not very good. Dare you try it too?
