I genuinely enjoyed this game and played it to its conclusion in my free time for almost four days straight, resulting in an 18 hour play time for a first run. There's a couple of mechanical issues (extended/failed loads between scenes, repeated VO dialogue overlapping in some places) and I felt the very end was a bit abrupt and somewhat unsatisfying. That said, the intriguing premise and the challenge of finding ways to progress past the psychological limiations applied as a result of attribute designation at the outset of the games was reminiscent of Disco Elysium. The music is appropriately atmospheric, the setting intriguing, the characters engaging, but most of all the narrative, woven with personal and generalized tragedy really makes this game a recommendation on my part, even given its issues and limitations.
