I don&#x27;t mean to invoke any sort of death of the author, the story isn&#x27;t about anything except what you bring to it kind of vagueness...but part of the genius of Braid is that it&#x27;s intentionally unclear what the story is about.<p>The famous quote in the epilogue makes you think of an important historical event, but plausibly that&#x27;s metaphorical and the game is about something more personal, existential. Maybe the game isn&#x27;t about anything but making you reflect. Maybe it&#x27;s an expression of particular events in Blow&#x27;s life. Maybe all of the above.
