But of course, Francis doesn’t really want to play folk music. On the 20 th anniversary of the release of Johnson’s breakthrough album, the locals in Johnson’s hometown have booked Francis to play a tribute concert for the tourists flooding into the town. Playing for myself, I was immediately surprised at how taken I was with the story of Francis Vendetti – the nephew of renowned folk singer Johnson Vendetti. I was at once taken with the kaleidoscope of imagery I saw, so I dipped over to Game Pass and clicked the download button. The Artful Escape absolutely bursts with color, sound, and humor. It is rare that I get the chance to play games simply for pleasure, but after I watched a few minutes of Games N Moorer’s recent playthrough, I knew I had to take a swipe at The Artful Escape (frankly, I should have known just from the fact that The Artful Escape is published by Annapurna Interactive – the publisher with the best taste in the business). But when a parent – or uncle, in the case of The Artful Escape – is wildly successful, and a kid decides that they too want to follow those same career paths, how does the inescapable gravity of the elder change the trajectory of the young? And what must it be like to try to break free from that black hole of fame, and become your own celestial body? There are few people that have that experience in terms of fame and fortune, but the pressure to go into the family business is as old as time, whether that business is guitar playing or brick laying. I chose Joe Hill as my example because he is an obvious success, and I didn’t feel uncomfortable picking on him.

But what if Joe Hill had inherited the talent, but decided that he wanted to write kid’s books, or romance novels? How much does the expectation to work within the genre of a successful predecessor pressure following generations to follow suit? Joe Hill writes horror and fantasy fiction, and he’s damn good at it. And though his books and stories have their own voice and identity and would be unlikely to be mistaken for his father’s, it is not inaccurate to say that he has gone into the family business. Joe Hill – Stephen King’s son – has inherited a great deal of his dad’s writing talent.
