Immersing in History’s Dark Corners
“The Hungry Lamb: Traveling in the Late Ming Dynasty” offers a haunting glimpse into the late Ming period of China, a time rife with social upheaval and severe famine. The game stands out for its meticulous attention to historical details, especially in depicting the stark realities faced by women and children.
