A free point-and-click arcade game
We Become What We Behold Alpha is a free arcade gaming app with an interesting storyline. The game is set in some sort of park where peeps or people are divided into two different groups: the squares and the circles. The graphics of the game are very simple. The characters look more like stick figures than human beings.
That said, what We Become What We Behold Alpha lacked in the graphics department, they made up with the sound quality. Although the peeps don’t talk, they can scream loudly. Other sound bites like cricket noise make the game immersive.
Not for the weak stomach
As a point-and-click game, you will find it very easy to play. All you have to do is move your cursor or finger and click on the wandering Squares and Circles to capture any interesting activity that they’re doing. What you click or capture will be shown on a television screen of some sort and will be seen by the rest of the peeps.
We Become What We Behold Alpha starts peacefully and it gets more morbidly chaotic towards the end. At first, it may seem that you’re only playing as a watcher, as someone who’s there to witness the gameplay unfold, but no. The longer you play the game, you’ll realize that you’re actually the catalyst. Things will lead to the way they do because you’ve caught them on cam.
Overall, the game will last for about five minutes. It only has one storyline and there are no other levels. You can replay it multiple times but the outcome would still be the same. That said, if you’re not one for violent games, then you might sit this one out. That’s because it will only get extremely frantic and bloodier toward the end.
Good for one-time play
Some players say that We Become What We Behold Alpha represents the toxicity of social media. Particularly at how quickly people on the internet will cancel anyone in a heartbeat. Meanwhile, others say that it could also be a manifestation of poor media framing and people will just blindly believe anything they see on TV. At the end of the day, it’s only a game. Try having fun playing it.
