Calendula could have sufficed simply as an odd game within a game, an interactive creepypasta, but its narrative closes with an odd turn that feels a bit ostentatious. This doesn’t negatively affect the experience as a whole, but it did come out of left field as if the team wanted to wrap the game up with a suggestion that it’s all an allegory for something. If so, the puzzles may not have, but the symbolism went over my head. Perhaps it’s all in the name – Calendula – and has a cultural or historical significance I’m not aware of.
