Put Your Toasting Skills to the Test in I am Bread

I am Bread .

. Anything else I type here is a waste, crushed by the colossal power of those three simple words. Bossa Studios, developers of Surgeon Simulator (otherwise known as Malpractice AHOY! ), have moved away from helping the general public complete their medical degrees in hopes of stomping out a much more common problem: Being incapable of toasting. Do you burn your toast? Is it too white? In the safe confines of I am Bread ‘s toasting simulation space, you can live the life of a piece of bread and test the various methods and famous theories around toast and toasting procedures.

The best way to truly understand the toast is to become it, and as such, the game is using a Mount Your Friends style mechanic to maneuver your bread around. You have four buttons that each apply to a corner of the bread, and you use those to make the corner stick to any surface. Using this along with the stick will help you move your toast around the house, which will let you test out whether letting bread ride skateboards, putting it on the ceiling fan, or letting it soak in the toilet will improve its toasting capabilities. As an added bonus, the bread possesses a katamari-like adhesiveness, which allows the player to stick various condiments and small objects to the bread for sandwich analysis. Advanced edibility algorithms will test the bread’s fitness for human consumption, so go wild with your most intense bread tests.

I don’t dare think of the damage that could be done in a real-world situation using such bread stress tests, so thankfully we can carry them out in the safety of Bossa Studio’s simulation right now. I am Bread is now available for $9.99 on Early Accessfor anyone who dares not waste another slice of real world bread for their sickening, twisted experiments.

Is toasting all that this simulation contains, though, or is there something darker under its surface?
