I'm not really sure what to make of this game. The premise is interesting, the central mystery and twist is interesting, but I don't think the mechanics are there. I found myself jumping to what felt like the endgame right away, and based on a bit of looking at other people's playthroughs, I'm still not sure what the intended experience is. Maybe that's the point? It just feels a bit unsatisfying, I feel like this could have worked better as a movie with controlled pacing.

Definitely not a bad game by any means. In its context it is an experiment in gameplay and narrative formatting for video games. I definitely think it's kinda a weak effect in the end, so I'm interested in checking out Immortality to see what an evolved version of this looks like.
