This feels like the logical next step of classic RPGs like Planescape:Torment, mixed with the unique appeal of pen&paper with actual human dungeon masters. This game excels at telling a gripping story in a unique and interesting world, while also being a terrifyingly effective mirror to a lot of actual problems and fears of modern humans and modern society. In over 20 years, no game has felt this close to my actual thoughts and experiences or was that customizable in its experience.
This was the first puzzle/mystery game in a long time that felt both fair and satisfyingly difficult. There is no crazy adventure-logic to keep you guessing longer, instead you have to look for small details, connections, and the flow of scenes to deduce each answer. This was very frustrating sometimes, but it never stopped being fun. The concept is original, creative and incredibly well executed. I enjoyed the artistic style as well, the games conjures up a lot of atmosphere with very simple (but very well done) graphics. Absolutely recommend, whether you enjoy puzzle/mystery games or not, because this is in a league of its own.
I wish I could find more games like this. It perfectly replicates and lampshades early internet culture while telling a compelling story. Gameplay/riddle-solving was unique, fun and easy enough to never stand in the way of the story's flow.
I really enjoyed this one. It relies more on atmosphere and a coherent artistic vision than a gripping story, but that worked really well for me. Just the right length and all in all a thoroughly original and beautiful experience.
