Pretty cool. For most of the game, you're rummaging through a database of live-action clips of a woman being interviewed by police on multiple occasions regarding the disappearance of her husband. It ended up being pretty expansive due to how you uncover new clips by typing in keywords and phrases into the database, finding these new clips and then tying them together with others made uncovering the events that transpired leading up to the interviews especially engaging. It's pretty short though, I was able to finish it in about 2 hours. The story itself is fine and I'm fond of how they were able to tie it together but some of these clips ended up being so absurd it had me like 🤨. I think the actress does a really good job for the most part, her mannerisms in certain clips stand out and add a lot to making the police interviews feel more authentic. This is definitely one of the more unique games I've played, and I recommend checking it out if you're able to catch it on a sale.

i remember i thought this game was so cool then never played it to the end

Cool game. I like how you have to peel away the layers and things are out of order. I don't like the amount of filler clips. Great acting.

Utter brilliance compiled into such a small scale game. You get an actress who is only known for her music and yet the performance on display is career defining.

The premise and mechanics are bizarre on paper yet work perfectly and create one of the most unique gaming experiences of all time: a story that can be viewed in basically any order, and it maintains the mystery despite that. How many games do you know where you can start at any point and still have a great experience?

This is a must play if you have any love for mysteries.

Игра не для фанатов Овервотча, конечно...
Занятная история с интересной подачей, но довольно простенькая и не дожатая. Вдохновлено одним из фильмов Нолана.
