Metamorphosis | Review, in the footsteps of Kafka

Metamorphosis | Review, in the footsteps of Kafka
Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis is one of those books that you will surely have read more than once. I did it, for example: first with compulsory schooling and then for personal pleasure once an "adult", in order to perceive the interpretations that Kafka had inserted in the text, such as the ecosystem of the family and the alienation of the individual. Arguments out of the daily life of a high schooler, but the bizarre nature of a man who transforms into a giant insect always has the right edge to be able to inculcate an allegory or two in the head of an average teenager. The Metamorphosis is also one of the most significant writings for understanding the author's life and the relationship with the ties close to him, especially if one had the foresight to compare him with a still persistent modern condition.

Omitting the literature lesson of the ministerial program, when I heard that Kafka's Metamorphosis would become a video game I immediately thought it was an excellent idea right now, when independent experiences often deal with purely political, social and - in general - very humans. Metamorphosis by Ovid Works is therefore openly a game that is based on the book of the same name and the love for it, albeit a far cry from a word-for-word repetition. There is no family, there is no strong reflective component and for good or bad what remains of Kafka's idea is the image of the insect and the social shadow, here translated into a society of small insects.
