Surprising and disappointing from GOG that this has no controller support. Yes I could try to remap the 60 different input settings but this seems like a no brainer patch, especially since this game was on consoles, and obviously did support controllers.
I got sucked into the hype for this title and bought it before there were very many reviews and I am regert. I thought it was an exploration game where you could find a bunch of cool little secrets and mini-games and whatnot by poking around every inch of a small town, with an awesome art and music style, and with a general theme of occult mystery. When the reviews say that for almost the entire "game" you basically just click next, they aren't kidding. You usually have only one option at any given moment, the dialog options are entirely superficial. You essentially walk up and down the same four screens nudging the same couple of NPCs for dialog over and over. Except when you are playing a terrible guitar dance button masher thing. Or having repetitive dream sequences where you leap around trying to find all the members of a band in environments that are too dark and bland to boot. The roguelite is actually pretty fun, but the same kind of fun you can have on the flash game website of your choice a hundred times over for free. I really wanted to like this game based on the general description, but it was just underwhelming on every level. I did like the art and the music, and I like what they were trying to do in broad strokes, so 3 stars. Somebody please make the quirky occult small town exploration game I thought this was.
