Katherine works with a strange combination of literature and software, so it makes sense that she goes crazy for games with good narrative design in her spare time. Among her favourite games are The Last of Us (the only console game she's touched), the Mass Effect trilogy and RimWorld. Just don't ask her about The Force Unleashed.
