Hated it but then it hit me
I thought this was going to be a fun, enjoyable video game. It is not. A lot what they talk about, like XANADU, is real. This is real stuff that happened in computer science history, like browsing the internet “a single line of text at a time”. If you are one of the few looking for an opportunity to learn about the history of computers in the most off-handed, yet user-friendly way possible, then this is for you.
It is a story about how the extremely hard-to-navigate information superhighway of the 60s, 70s, and 80s became the internet.
If you’re looking for more, look into how Marc Andreessen developed Mosaic.

I never leave reviews, but…
This game is an emotional exploration into capitalism and loss, with a touch of authentic Americana. It’s really more of an art piece, like a play, than it is a typical video game. Definitely not for everyone, but if you’re into obscure games that tell a bigger story, this is for you. It’s been months since I finished the final chapter and I still find myself thinking back to this story and its characters often. It’s a low poly masterpiece that makes you sympathize with faceless protagonists, and the music is phenomenally dreamy yet sad.

You need netflix to play this
You need netflix to play this game, should highlight this first in the description to save downloading for nothing.
Beautiful game
It's not quite a "game" in a traditional sense, where the player affects and make differences on the story. It's more an "experience" and sensation. I loved the mystery and visuals. Spectacular and just enough "strangeness" to keep me hooked. Thank you!
Controller support please
…Backbone support!
A Masterpiece
This is definitely a must try if you love an immersive experimental theater experience. I have Netflix account so I can play it on my phone but I guess they also have it on steam. The headset is a must when you play it, trust me. Just one small bug, I need to restart the scene of picking up mushrooms and change some choices to go though..

It tries. If you’re caffeinated.
This is not a “game” it’s a very, very, slow choose your own adventure book. If youre on an airplane, in jail or stuck on a 16hr bus, MAYBE you’ll find this amusing. It’s basically like ready a book, one line and a time and clicking to get to the next line. God bless those who have the patience or lack of energy to try and follow this mess.

Once in a lifetime experience
Not for everyone
Gorgeous Game
I absolutely loved this game. The art and music are beautiful as well as the story. However, it is by no means a flashy or fast paced and it frankly felt akin to reading a book in a lot of ways. It’s around 10 hours long and split up into 5 chapters, so definitely longer than what you could play in one sitting. Although I would definitely recommend giving it a shot for the touching narrative and charming cast of characters.
