Amazing

This is so beautiful I can’t even fathom to find the words to explain it

MISSING SMTH

The game is visually/sensory amazing and makes you feel involved with the story. But it is so short that I felt I was missing something. I just couldn’t believe that it was over, like? It should have more development in the characters’ lives and personalities, it felt incomplete :(

Just give it a chance

The soundtrack and art is absolutely beautiful, and ofc above all else is the story. With out spoiling anything it’s about how our perspective can warp the truth and how we sometimes see what we want to see. While the entire game is only about an hour and a half long it is worth every second of it. I’ve already replayed it three times at this point, it sticks with you. And this game is somehow almost unheard of so if you like this game as much as I did, please tell someone, I want to talk to more people about this game.

Better luck next time

Just awful.

Short game

Interesting story, but game is very short, only about a half hour long

It’s NOT woke, stick with it till the end!

What a great little narrative! Exactly the kind of story our society needs right now, just jam packed with truth about our current moment.

A stuck up / pink haired feminist type comes back to her small town from the big city on the 1 year anniversary of her childhood best friends death. She overlays all her modern misogyny onto the situation and develops a wild theory of her friends death that confirms all her incorrect views of the world, only to discover that like Jon Snow…she knows nothing, and that it wasn’t her dead friend who chose the wrong path, but herself.

It’s short but contains a message so many young people need to absorb (as long as you play it to the end when she gets pie’d in the face)

I saw some reviews on here of people saying this is just more woke garbage …but they obviously didn’t play to the end. I get that people are sick and tired of all the antitruth propaganda in all our movies/shows/games and are highly sensitive to it, and quick to just turn it off and leave a bad review at the first whiff of wokeness (it’s often deserving) but stick with this one to the end, it all blows up in her face and is highly highly satisfying!

Bama hoops fan is wrong

The whole point of the game is to show that the main character who says stuff like “Jesus loving freaks” is in the wrong

Tries to push a narrative

Played this game for about 10-15 minutes and it’s nothing but anti-Christianity. Every other sentence is “Jesus Freaks”, “Bible thumpers”, etc. Leans HEAVILY to the left side. Basically within those few minutes, it said Christianity is bad and forced the LGBT/abortion stuff nonstop. Just not my type of game and would’ve liked to have known this before paying for it. Deleted it and won’t be finishing.

Not an hour long

Very short, nothing to discover, ending is poor

I don't have any words

And after that, someone can say that video games are not the art?
