Day Repeat Day is an interactive story and a match-3 game that takes you through the years in a life of an average person. You're hired to do a job. You try to manage your relationships. But you're never really sure where it's all leading to. It's a story about living, the daily grind and what it all means in the end, topped with a sprinkle of satire and mysteries. After doing a lot of action games, I wanted to do something much more intimate and personal and Day Repeat Day is what came of it. Press: - It takes some serious ingenuity to subvert a genre as entrenched as the mobile match-3 game, but somehow developer Kimmo Factor, probably most well-known for the awesome hack ‘n slash game Barbearian, has done exactly that - Game of the Week / Touch Arcade - It turns out to be much, much more than this, than either genre, a whole, complicated and unique creation, that speaks truth about life, about work, about hierarchies and about mistakes. It’s stunning. - Kotaku
