Waste of my time and money

It wasnt a lot of money to buy but was absolutely pointless , like lasted 5 minutes and all I did was move left and right and clicked on a few things

Beautiful

This short game is a beautiful piece of art. The story is told through visual artwork and is a really nice play!

This game helps wrap my head around what I’ve become

Not to make this review or whatever too long, but some years ago, Myself and The only person i have ever loved and continue to revolve my life around, had parted ways due to our mental states and emotional weaknesses. After that had occurred, I had done things to myself and attempted certain actions to myself that continue to make me spiral down downward. Around this time is when I started to realize i had ocd on top of the other mental illnesses I have, and found that my trait in ocd revolves around surroundings, lighting, and perceptions through my placements (if something to my definition, aesthetically appealing), and A couple of years ago I downloaded this game on my Android that was falling apart and never got to whole heartedly experience the game properly but instantly fell in love with everything about it. The way the lighting goes to a cold blue after you’re finished reminiscing the warmer colors and lighting with what felt like perfect sentimental memories attached to those details, it just all gave me a very very raw empathetic feeling that I wasn’t able to feel in a very very long time. It’s interesting how it happens to people. For some it happens at the sight of a sunset or the consolation from a friend, but my first sense of this feeling since my life was headed downhill was this comforting game. I’d love to express my thanks to those who made this game what it is, especially to Sean wenham, the one who was able to visualize and display these extremely heavy feelings. Thank you.

Not a game...

This isn’t a game. There’s nothing to figure out, solve, or problem to tackle. It’s basically a series of confusing and vague vignettes following a character who you’re not sure if he’s going to get to some other state of being, have a revelation of some sorts, or just continue on as is. Buy it if you want to see someone’s artwork, but there’s no gameplay here.

beautiful

this game is absolutely beautiful if you play it right.

Don’t waste your money

Too short- not enough content.

Not worth a dollar.

Dont buy it. I finished the whole game within 5 mins. I didnt get any joy from this game. this game was way toooooo short.

Waste of money

This is not a game. Please give me a refund

Others must have got a different game

I don’t understand these other reviews. It makes me wonder if we played the same game.

I was thinking this was going to be like This War of Mine, but it isn’t. There’s no story here. Well, there is, but it isn’t a clear one:

Dude has girlfriend.
Girlfriend leaves.
The end.

No story given about even WHY she leaves. They go from happy to on fire out the elevator directly.

I really wanted more from this app.

Waste of money

Two stars for a little imagination and good graphics, but a pointless, short and boring game.

I think the UI is broken

Once I wake up in bed, the left and right buttons no longer work, and I can only navigate by tapping on interactable things. The clock is no longer accessible once out of frame. When I tap the protagonist, I see the box of cigarettes saying “drag” but nothing I drag on does anything. All I can do is take clothes on and off, go in and out of the kitchen, make and drink coffee, sit in the chair, stand up, and take cigarettes out of my pocket. I can’t bring up memories for any of that and I can’t go anywhere else or do anything else.

15-20 minutes?!?!

Just no I prefer games which you can play over and over and over again but you can’t do that with this game and even if you were to it’s not that good of a story...

Nice illustrations

Nice illustrations but way too short.

Seems very buggy

Can’t get guy to move out of room - just keeps drinking coffee. I don’t get it.

Um.

I read a lot of the reviews, good and bad, before starting this game. Didnt expect much. But what i received was even worse than i thought. I mean the art of the game is beautiful and the story is pretty sad but it took me about 5 minutes to complete it. Find the three memories then either fall down a hole or sit at a table. Extremely boring especially when you have to walk through the same rooms every “day” with only three things to do. Smoke, sit, or have coffee, all of which do nothing for the story. I believe it would be a great game if it was much longer, had more things to interact with and if the walking wasnt so slow! I got bored very quickly. Overall, don’t buy this if you’re looking for a fun long game to play or if you don’t want to spend 99 cents on something boring.

Didn’t get the point.

After about 10 minutes of making trips between the coffeemaker and the wardrobe, I gave up.

Coffee simulator.

You get to drink coffee then smoke. Awesome!

For those who can appreciate

This ain’t Fortnite. It’s not a puzzle game, you won’t be platforming or trying to get the headshot. If you need that kind of interaction to enjoy an app, this probably isn’t for you.

It’s just something poignant and touching to interact with. It’s poetic and heartbreaking. It captures a feeling that many of us know but few can communicate.

And yes, it ends too soon. Like relationships, sometimes. Even those on these reviews angry and complaining about the length of time to move through this, even they were moved to feel that yearning. That something special ended too soon.

Not actually a game

Yes, there are things you interact with, and about 5 or 6 different “locations”, and you move between them. But it is not a game...there is no discernible goal, and no choice involved with your interactions. You just see a handful of scenes, which play out the same because there is no alternative choice you can make to progress. And then it just...ends. There are two different “endings”, depending on which way you walk in the last scene, but neither one is particularly interesting. And the whole experience takes about 10 minutes, max.

It is true that the art style is compelling, and that is why I wasted $.99 on this, but it’s not much more than an interactive painting.

What do u do

Really good visuals but what is the aim of the game. However after figuring it it out which didn’t take that long tbh it was a fun game albeit too short but I enjoyed it. Some interesting but different ideas hope there’s more to come
