It tries to be Firewatch ...
I expected something like Layers of Fear but instead I got a pure Firewatch clone. Unfortunately there's by far not as much to do as in Firewatch and the voice over while still being good is not as exceptional as it was in Firewatch (imo Firewatch had the best VO ever). The story is starting a bit slow but it develops a mystery vibe after a while and the player is starting to try to puzzle things together. The environment looks beautiful and there's no doubt the developers were big fans of Shining and Kubrick in general (red/white toilet, overlook, carpet and of course the general theme). I am a slow player and it took me 4,5 hours to finish the game. Unfortunately there's not anything to explore outside your to do list so you are basically just following the narration. It's also a bit annoying that you are moving really slow if you don't run (and there's no always run option available). Still if you are playing the game for what it is (a narrative experience and nothing more) you still might enjoy it the same I did. One word to those "the game glorifies pedophiles" and "the victum did not get a voice" ... that's not true. The game does not glorify anything it simply tells a story about love, society, family, loss, tragic events and how people cope with those. The pedophile father itself is also not glorified at all. Those people who think this might have missed a few conversations inside the game. Anyway: short, enjoyable and it could have been better gameplay wise - but still a nice narrative experience with some great looking environment and a nice but tragic mystery plot.
