I Am Bread Review

Posted: 10 months ago, last updated 6 months ago.

Overview

I Am Bread takes the malleable, real-world physics gameplay and applies it to a slice of bread. By controlling each corner with a different stick or button you make your way around the kitchen and other rooms of the house. Playing a slice of bread is funny in its own right, but it gets really silly as you become covered in all sorts of household detritus.
