If you walked into my room at any time (please don’t), chances are you’ll find me playing more adult games. No, not talking about those—I mean specifically Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto VI, Cyberpunk 2077, or The Blood of Dawnwalker. Perhaps I’ll be enjoying Kingdom Hearts or a dash of Pokémon, but in reality, most of the time it’ll be more mature experiences. However, I’ve recently stopped my first proper The Witcher 3 playthrough almost instantly in favor of Dressmaker. And you could join me too, thanks to a tasty discount.
Nothing satisfies me more than a well-placed slice that cuts down a monster or taking on side quests to uncover a story off the beaten path. However, I’ve found that I’m equally satisfied by a little bit of hard work. Dressmaker isn’t just about making dresses—it’s about each decision impacting the final product, working toward your client’s requests in a professional, respectful manner.
I’m not typically playing the best cozy games. Sure, some experiences like Stardew Valley and, well, Dreamlight Valley (I like valley games, apparently) will scratch that part of my brain. Dressmaker, fortunately, is one of those cases where it does. Every element, from concept to the finished product, feels as important as the one before, culminating in a finished piece that feels rewarding to see completed.
Personally, I’ve always been quite a creative person. It’s why games that, even with more violence, capture my interest: I’m able to customize my experience further. Dressmaker takes that aspect (without the ultra-violence, of course) and puts it at the focal point of the experience. Every element of the dress, from colors to cuts to fabric, can be chosen by you. That makes every single dress you make—and you’ll make a lot—as special as the last.
You don’t have to make each dress formulaic, either. You can decide to turn various video game characters into dresses for a bit of a theme in your shop, or you could potentially specialize in a certain selection of colors of your choosing. The concept is simple, but the pure enjoyment you can get from it isn’t.
Despite the game taking the world by storm, you can actually grab Dressmaker at a discount with Fanatical, dropping it down to just $12.74 / £11.56 when using the code “FANATICAL15” in your cart. That means you’ll save 15% off the listed price, making it cheaper than Steam and giving you the dressmaking shop of your dreams at a lower price.
Now, if you don’t mind me, I’m going to make a dress that’s perfect for Geralt. It’s the least I can do since I’m ignoring him now.
