definitely worth the short 20 minutes it takes to play it. Less horror and more just. Sad.

5.5/10

One of the fiew "screenlife games" I ever played (and ever existed?). You find and old computer and start exploring its files, folders, archived chat... you basically star investigating what the previous owner was up to. Of course this become more and more fascinating as you proceed: the computer, the chats, the online friends, all keeps addressing "you", but you're not that you. You're basically investigating an implied subjectivity, overlapped to yours as you play.

There are brilliant All About Lily Chou Chou vibes here and there. The game just loses part of its charm as it proceeds and becomes nothing but a standard puzzle game.

Last Seen Online is a really good short form Indie Horror game that really got a reaction out of me. The game does have a few scares, and it does have a creepy atmosphere, especially when you get into the Other World.

But, where this game really shines is it story, that is very emotionally driven, and very well thought out, and very well written. The story fits well within the concept of the game, and it is quite powerful with the messages it has about living forever, and depressive thoughts.

Very good game, and one I think should be played by most people, especially since its free.

Overall: 9/10

what i thought would be an offputting and spooky game turned out to also be heartbreaking, i loved it. everything about it felt unique and interesting, even if it was a little short

This is what it's like playing Wizard101.
