Reviews:

“The Average Everyday Adventures of Samantha Browne is a great example of a fun, but still powerful game experience that anyone can enjoy.”
Gamerwife

“A splendid vignette about social anxiety."
Rock Paper Shotgun

“I was playing as Samantha as I would never play as myself. Maybe others like me can learn from this sweet little game. The world isn’t actually as scary as it seems, and chances are, those girls chatting in the communal dining area don’t give a shit if you’re making noise while making oatmeal. In the meantime, it’s baby steps.”
