User reviews

Weird

It’s really weird how she asks you to be alone in your home

Technical issues

The app does not work well. I couldn’t get any audio unless headphones were plugged in and the video won’t work or would freeze.

Thrilling

What a unique and memorable experience this app is. I am not aware of anything quite like it. I have experienced Karen multiple times and was happy to see this rereleased.

Anyone thinking about watching needs to understand that this is not an app about life coaching. It is an interactive drama about a 40ish therapist living somewhere in the UK. We see glimpses of Karen’s life over a period of time and must fill in the gaps ourselves.

It’s experimental theatre in my pocket and I find that amazing.
