"Sister Tabitha has been asleep 8 years. On route to investigate the disappearance of the orbital Monastery "Enoch's Hope"; She is haunted by reoccurring dreams of a Dimethyltryptamine harvesting "Garden of paradise." At least that's what the box said to the obscure avante garde 90's game the "Shovelware Queens" started reviewing. The Unlicensed Bible game that should have been buried in a desert is back !! and this time its taking no prisoners on its metaphysical "psychosis quest" into the very nature of God and death.

Despite my low rating, I actually liked this one. The gameplay is abysmal, yeah, and it lacks some basic functions that one would expect in a video game.
Yet, I found it oddly charming. I had no idea what was going on at any given moment but truth to be told, it reminded me a bit of Henry Darger's Realms of the Unreal (just in space) in a way I can simply not explain.
It's weird, it's a bit out there and I frankly love this game for it. I think there is a case to be made for games like this, considering the current state of gaming and its relentless tendency to simply repeat familiar formulas.

Steam has many shovelwares and this one is kinda famous.
People should stop treating games that try to be different as jokes.
