Quando saiu trailers e anúncios fiquei com muitas expectativas, o início é muito bom, a trama aos poucos vai perdendo o encanto e ficando bem previsível, os flashbacks e algumas cenas me chamaram muito atenção

Pros.
- Reliable and familiar Don’t Nod (the folks behind the Life is Strange franchise) gameplay and tone.
- The small town locale and community of Basswood is immersive and lived in.
- Graphics and voice acting are solid.
- Mind Palace and ‘Him’ gameplay elements are interesting…

Cons.
- The game is too short and doesn’t feel as substantial as the studio’s prior works.
- The mystery/reveals are fairly standard and not as shocking as they could have been.
- A smattering of irritating trial and error puzzles.
- … however these have both been executed more effectively in other games.

Jogo muito curto, historinha fraca e rushadinha, o mistério é até legalzinho, mas a história não te surpreende em nada. Poderiam ter feito um trabalho melhor.

I feel like this is one of DON'T NOD's weakest game right after LiS.
The plot of the game feels unpolished and rushed. There weren't any memorable characters since most of them lack personality.

However, I appreciate the concept of Sam's Mind Palace, and the way he applies it to critical thinking whenever you solving problems.

Of all the DONT NOD games I've played, this is probably by far the least good, but not for lack of an interesting subject.
The game focuses on the main character's mental problems without really getting into the subject. If the devs had chosen to really go into depth on the subject, the game could have been very interesting.
Aside from the specificity of the main character, the rest of the story is fairly banal and uninteresting compared to the first Life is Strange, for example, particularly as most of the characters lack a great deal of charisma or personality.
In addition to the above details, the game is visually fairly clean, except for the facial expressions, which are really not that crazy for a game of this genre.
As a fan of the studio's previous work, I can't recommend this game, which is really average and doesn't add anything interesting to the formula.
